Abstract
In this paper, a compact design of a balanced 1×4 optical power splitter based on coupled mode theory (CMT) is presented. The design consists of seven vertically slotted waveguides based on the silicon-on-insulator platform. The 1×4 OPS is modelled using commercial finite element method (FEM) simulation tool COMSOL Multiphysics 5.1. The optimized OPS is capable of working across the whole C-band with maximum ~39 % of power decay in the wavelength range 1530 – 1565 nm.
