    Abstract : This thesis presents silicon micromachined waveguide components for sub-terahertz and terahertz (THz) systems fabricated by deep reactive ion etching (DRIE). Historically the main driving force for the development of THz systems has been space-based scientific instruments for astrophysics, planetary and Earth science missions. READ MORE

  3. 3. Multifunctional Waveguide Grating Couplers for Integrated Optics

    Author : Johan Backlund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis describes a novel waveguide component in integrated optics called a multifunctional grating coupler. It couples light in or out of optical waveguides and provides additional optical functions such as beam splitting, arbitrary focusing, polarization sensing, and wavelength separation (wavelength division demultiplexing).

    Abstract : The characteristics of a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) rib waveguide, including the bending loss of a multimode bent waveguide and the birefringence of a rib waveguide, are analyzed by using a finite-difference method (FDM). Based on a detailed analysis for a multimode bent waveguide, an appropriately designed multimode bent waveguide for reducing effectively the bending loss of the fundamental mode is realized. READ MORE
