摘要
This paper describes a comparison of three types of 8 x 8 multimode star couplers made in polymeric multimode waveguides. Their geometry was designed with a ray tracing tool, Measurements show low loss for all designs, but a symmetrical design, based on a tree of Y-junctions yields the best uniformity.
