摘要：
We propose to implement a modularly structured planar wave-guiding star-coupler for large-core polymer fiber-based optical interconnect applications. An 8x8 version of the coupler is demonstrated using polymer materials. The planar star-coupler can be mass-produced using injection molding technology at substantially low cost. Measurements indicate that by properly working out a trade-off between device compactness, uniformity and coupling efficiency, a < 2.0 dB power fluctuation among all receiving channels and a 3.1 dB excess power loss are obtainable.
