Abstract

A miniature arrayed waveguide grating of 70/spl times/60 /spl mu/m/sup 2/ size consisting of Si photonic wire waveguides was designed using complete modelling in the finite-difference time-domain simulation. The device was fabricated onto a silicon-on-insulator substrate and evaluated in the wavelength range around 1.55 /spl mu/m. The clear demultiplexing characteristics were observed with a channel spacing of 11 nm and a loss of less than 1 dB.
