This schematic shows an application of arrayed waveguide gratings, a technology developed by the telecommunications industry, combining eight laser arrays (left) to a single waveguide (far right) that ...
As we know, DWDM technology enables transmission of dozens of wavelengths in a single fiber, which expands the capacity of optical fiber communication enormously. The first mux/demux modules for DWDM ...
On the other hand, silicon-based PICs 6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16 have also become very popular, because of their compatibility with mature CMOS (complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor) technologies ...
