ABSTRACT
We present, to the best of our knowledge, the first experimental demonstration of reconfigurable all-optical on-chip multi-input-multi-output three-mode demultiplexing based on multi-plane light conversion. The demultiplexer consists of cascaded phase shifter arrays and multimode interference couplers integrated on a compact silicon chip. By optimizing the phase shifters, reconfigurable three-mode demultiplexing is experimentally realized with wavelength-dependent loss of less than 3 dB and modal crosstalk of less than -10 dB over a 23 nm optical bandwidth. Error-free mode demultiplexing of 40 Gbps non-return-to-zero signal is also demonstrated.
