A Compact and Low-Loss MMI Coupler Fabricated With CMOS Technology

We present the design, fabrication, and measurement of a compact and low-loss multimode interference (MMI) coupler based on the silicon nanowire waveguide. The device is carefully designed to achieve both a good performance and a compact size by using the mode matching method. The device is fabricat...
