Optimized design of polarization-independent and temperature-insensitive broadband optical waveguide coupler by use of fluorinated polyimide.

A statistically optimized design method suitable for a polariation-independent and temperature-insensitive broadband waveguide coupler is proposed. By use of this method, a fluorinated polyimide waveguide 3-dB waveguide coupler for 1490 to approximately 1610 nm application is designed by optimizing polarization and temperature fluctuation. The validity of the design is verified through simulation based on the three-dimensional beam propagation method (3D-BPM), which revealed a coupling ratio of 50 +/- 0.8% in a 120-nm bandwidth in the temperature range -10 to 40 degrees C for both orthogonal polarizations.

Optimized design of fluorinated polyimide based interleaver.

Statistical optimization method for the design of a fluorinated polyimide wavelength division element for optical communication is proposed. The opitimized device is an interleaver element suitable for dividing over 40 wavelengths in the 1550 nm band. Optimization considers the inherent polarization dependence of fluorinated polyimide based on measurements of the dispersion characteristics and birefringence of fluorinated polyimide film. A 40-wavelength device is designed by use of the proposed technique for a working wavelength of 1550 nm and a wavelength interval of 0.8 nm. The device exhibited a 1-dB passband of 0.5 nm and a 3-dB passband of 0.8 nm, and output wavelength fluctuation due to polarization effects of less than 0.08 nm.

Optimized design of temperature-insensitive optical waveguide coupler with 120-nm bandwidth using fluorinated polyimide.

Method for designing optimized temperature-insensitive optical waveguide couplers by use of fluorinated polyimide is presented. Based on measured temperature and dispersion characteristics of fluorinated polyimide, a 3-dB waveguide coupler with a 120-nm bandwidth with minimal temperature variance is designed and verified through simulation based on three-dimensional beam propagation. The coupling ratio of the theoretical device is 50 +/- 0.7% in the waveband 1490 to approximately 1610 nm and the temperature range -10 to approximately 40 degrees C.
