Abstract
We present a compact optical add-drop multiplexer in silicon-on-insulator based on combining mode selection with Bragg reflection. The add-drop channel has a 3-dB bandwidth of 2 nm, an extinction ratio of 30 dB, and an interferometric crosstalk of less than –42 dB. We characterize the inter-channel and interferometric crosstalk performance using BER measurements for 10-Gb/s NRZ data and obtain crosstalk induced power penalties less than 3.5 dB.
