Abstract

Design issues such as optical transmission, interference mechanisms and splitting ratio of a compact parabolically tapered Multimode Interference-based 3dB power splitter on an InP-based deeply etched ridge waveguide, using the finite element-based beam propagation method approach, are presented.
