Abstract

The present invention relates to a grating and a method, belongs to the optical communication technology field, and especially relates to an array waveguide grating of reducing kerf additional optical loss and a method for reducing kerf additional optical loss of an array waveguide grating. The array waveguide grating comprises an input waveguide, an input flat area, an array waveguide, an output flat area and an output waveguide; and the flat areas have period sectional-type waveguide areas. The speckle sizes of light wave is changed from small to big and then from big to small when the light performs propagation in the period sectional-type waveguide areas, the kerf is formed on the period sectional-type waveguide areas on the flat areas, and the additional optical loss generated by the kerf is low to reduce the requirement for the kerf width, reduce the kerf technology difficulty and improve the kerf yield.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a grating and a method, belonging to the technical field of optical communication, in particular to an arrayed waveguide grating and a method for reducing the additional optical loss of slits. Background technique [0002] The miniaturization and low cost of optical devices is the development trend of the industry. The material refractive index contrast of the commercialized planar light waveguide (PLC) technology platform has been continuously improved, from 0.45% to 0.75%, and then increased to the current 1.5-2%. The waveguide’s ability to constrain light waves has become stronger. The cross-sectional dimensions of the waveguides have become smaller, and the minimum bend radius has been reduced, so the size of the device has also continued to decrease. [0003] However, the increased refractive index contrast results in a smaller mode field in the optical waveguide, which diverges at a larger angle when light travels from t...
