Abstract
We propose a wavelength router composed of a pair of connected planar spectrographs to attain multiple input and output ports. The equal-len gth waveguide array connecting the two planar waveguides is used to re lax fabrication tolerance. The crosstalk below -20dB and filter bandwi dth of 5nm were attained with a device fabricated in LiNbO3.
