Abstract :
Using an inverse design method that explores the full design space of fabricable devices, we demonstrate a compact wavelength splitter with a footprint of only 2.8 × 2.8 m. The device has low insertion loss (2 - 4 dB), high contrast (12 - 17 dB), and is robust to fabrication imperfections.
