Abstract :
The relation between the width variation and the crosstalk floor is derived assuming the fabrication imperfection dominates the phase error. The calculated crosstalk shows linear dependence with the measured crosstalk floor. This reveals the calculated crosstalk floor would be a useful design parameter of AWG to predict the limit of channel isolation.
