Abstract :
The effect of the Residual Added Signal Crosstalk (RASX) in a micro-ring based silicon photonic integrated ROADM is demonstrated experimentally. The origin of this cross talk will be discussed and supported by experimental data which will lead to a justification of system level specifications theoretically estimated previously.
