  • Abstract
    We demonstrate resonant grating couplers with the broadest bandwidth (565 nm) reported to date, using microbend gratings in dispersion-optimized few-mode fibers. Control of modal dispersion enables the demonstration of spectrally flat (< 0.25-dB ripple) coupling. This enables a compact (1 cm), broad-band (110 nm) variable optical attenuator, which is highly cost-effective, since device assembly simply involves pressing an as-drawn fiber between two corrugated blocks.
