PIC Design and Simulation

    The actual performance of AWGs and other PICs can be optimized by two factors: materials properties and structure optimization.  The following results were obtained by optimizing structure for standard silica-on-silicon technology.

Example of spectral response over C-band of an 8-channel AWG.

Center wavelength and passband can be designed to match requirements of various applications.
