Normal WDM (sometimes called BWDM) uses the two normal wavelengths 1310 and 1550 nm on one fiber. Dense WDM (DWDM) uses the C-Band (1530 nm-1565 nm) transmission window but with. In fiber-optic communications, wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) is a technology which multiplexes a number of optical carrier signals onto a single optical fiber by using different wavelengths (i. This technique enables bidirectional communications over a. Wavelength division multiplexers are fundamental to the functioning and performance of integrated photonic circuits, with applications ranging from optical interconnects to sensing and quantum technologies. This makes it possible to scale capacity cost-effectively by using existing infrastructure more efficiently. We demonstrate WDM transmission of 32 wavelength channels with 100 GHz spacing, each carrying 3 modes of 120. We present a mode converter and demultiplexer structure for wavelength di- vision multiplexing (WDM) transmission by employing multimode interfe- rence (MMI) on Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) platform. The mode converter and demultiplexer have a compact size of less than 2.
