Summary :

Investigated is a guided-wave device for dividing optical power into three equal parts. The device fundamentally consists of a three-waveguide tapered-velocity coupler which is designed to operate under the adiabatic condition. Field distributions of the local normal modes along the coupler explain basic principles of the device. Its performance is confirmed through numerical simulations by means of finite difference beam propagation method.
