Abstract :
This paper introduces a duplexer using the extraneous self-imaging (Ex_SI) phenomenon which is not mentioned in multimode interference (MMI) theory. The Ex_SI phenomenon in silica-based multimode waveguides was experimentally studied. Then, using data for the Ex_SI phenomenon, the duplexer for the wavelengths of 1310 nm and 1550 nm was developed.
