Abstract :
We report the fabrication and measurement of silicon-wires and multi-mode interference splitters based on silicon-wires structures. The low propagation loss of 0.71±0.03dB/mm and bending loss of 0.01dB/90° were obtained for silicon-wires. The splitting-ratios of the splitters are respectively 50÷50, 15÷85, and 28÷72. They exhibited low excess loss and exact splitting-ratios.
