Demonstration of Mode-Evolutional Multiplexer for Few-Mode Fibers Using Stacked Polymer Waveguide

Mode-evolutional multi/demultiplexer for few-mode fibers was demonstrated using stacked polymer waveguides. Owing to the stacked structure, TE00, TE10, and TE01 modes, which correspond to LP01, LPeven11 , and LPodd 11 modes, respectively, were selectively excited by the fabricated multiplexer. The m...
