InP membrane integrated photonics research

“…Work has also been done to reduce the footprint of the AWGs. Reflective-type AWGs have been developed on InP membrane, showing a 35% footprint reduction with no compromise on the device crosstalk and only a slight increase in the insertion loss [134]. It is worth mentioning that this device is designed by combining a standard AWG and a PhC reflector BB, and that it is realized in an internal MPW run of the IMOS platform.…”

Characterization of Waveguide Photonic Crystal Reflectors on Indium Phosphide Membranes

“…The reflector has also been used in other applications, e.g. reflection-type arrayed waveguide gratings [2]. Photonic crystal reflectors have been widely used, e.g.…”
