Abstract
In this paper, the possibility of implementing low-loss demultiplexer devices based on diffractive
elements for SI-POF networks is studied. Theoretical and experimental analyses of three different diffractive
setups are reported. It is also presented a 3-channel demultiplexer proposal, based on a transmission diffraction
grating, with experimental insertion loss from 3.6dB to 5.8dB and adjacent channel crosstalk from −16.4dB to
−28.6dB. This proposal presents low losses and low crosstalk, and it is very easy to implement in a compact
reflective setup.
