Abstract :
We demonstrate a monolithic integration of a silica-based arrayed waveguide grating filter and silicon variable optical attenuators. The integrated device perform wavelength demultiplexing in 16 channels and provide high-speed power-level adjustment with a response of <;15 ns in each channel.
