Abstract :
A Reflective Arrayed Waveguide Grating in Silicon-on-Insulator is reported, based on Sagnac interferometers with Multimode Interference couplers reflectors. The measured performance is compared to regular AWGs on-chip. This R-AWG layout allows for customization of the response as shown with simulations.
