4-by-4 Integrated Waveguide Coupler Based on Bi-Directional Propagation in Two Single-Mode Waveguides

We propose and investigate theoretically the use of bi-directional propagation of light in silica integrated coupled waveguide structures for linear optical processing of fiber-coupled photons. We show that the class of linear operations that can be implemented in such a system is given by symmetric...
