Abstract
To improve the coupling efficiency of a conventional Ti:LiNbO3 channel waveguide with a single mode fibre, a promising Ti-Mg double diffused method has been employed to fabricate a single mode power divider. Ca lculated numerical results have revealed the feasibility of reducing c oupling loss as well as radiation loss, and a set of efficient fabrica tion parameters for this single mode device can be established. The de pendence of asymmetric branching angles and output dividing-power-rati os has been studied by adjusting the branching angle.
