摘要
An athermal arrayed-waveguide grating (AWG) multiplexer relying on an all-polymer approach is reported. The all-polymer AWG consisting of polymer waveguides fabricated on a polymer substrate exhibits excellent performance. By properly adjusting the coefficient of thermal expansion of the polymer substrate. athermal and polarisation-independent AWG devices featuring a wavelength shift of less than +/-0.05nm in the 25-65 degreesC temperature range could be demonstrated.
