Abstract—We demonstrated a very low crosstalk SiN-based interleaver with cascaded AWGs. The measured results show a crosstalk less than -31dB with good suppression to the adjacent and non-adjacent crosstalk. Compared to single AWG, the noise ratio of the cascaded AWGs is decreased 3%.
Index Terms—AWG, silicon, interleaver filter.
