  • Abstract
    The authors have demonstrated a compact (70 μm free-space radiation length), potentially robust, broadband (1.53-1.56 μm), polarisation-insensitive 3 dB optical power splitter based on InP using free-space radiative input-output coupling. This passive, 3 dB splitter is compatible with photonic integrated circuits
