A conventional AWG structure based on Benzo Cyclobutene (BCB 4024-40) polymer for DWDM/CWDM application is presented. AWGs are designed on silica substrate with the polymer waveguide refractive index of 1.5556 and layer refractive index of 1.537. Two types of four channels AWG have been successfully...
