Design and Simulation of Decoder and Encoder Device

Abstract

The mechanics of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) and the beam propagation technique (BPM) has been covered. The cascade of MZIs has been proposed here as a means of designing certain photonics devices. As photonics integrated circuits rely on optical waveguides and switching devices, these elements must be carefully designed. In this article, design of decoder and encoder device has been discussed.
