TL;DR: In this article, a temperature dependent channel wavelength shift in a silica-based arrayed-waveguide grating multiplexer was successfully suppressed from 0.95 to 0.05 nm in the 0-85/spl deg/C temperature range, which can be used in practical WDM systems without the need for temperature control.

Abstract: A temperature dependent channel wavelength shift in a silica-based arrayed-waveguide grating multiplexer is successfully suppressed from 0.95 to 0.05 nm in the 0-85/spl deg/C temperature range, which means that it can be used in practical WDM systems without the need for temperature control.
