Abstract
The authors examine the wavelength precision of InP/InGaAsP/InP planar waveguide grating multiplexer/demultiplexers, the sources of waveleng th error and the limitations they impose on practical devices. The per formance of MUX/DEMUXs fabricated from 2 inch MOCVD wafers is reported , demonstrating absolute wavelength control better than +/- 7 nm and c hannel-to-channel variation of < +/- 0.03 nm.
