An ultra-compact colorless 50:50 coupler based on PhC-like metamaterial structure

A novel PhC-like metamaterial structure with low fabricating accuracy requirements is proposed. We design and fabricate a 2.6μm×2.6μm coupler employing such structure. The measured excess loss of each port is less than 1dB over 60nm.
