초록

Inthis paper, we design 4$\times$4 optical star coupler with tapered coupling structure. The 4$\times$4 optical star coupler consists of four 3dB couplers and a 100% coupler with tapered structure. This star coupler is designed by the 2 dimension FD-BPM(finite difference beam propagation method) using TBC(transparent boundary condition). consequently, the maximum power unbalance ratios of relative output power from each of the output waveguides for each of input guides are less than 0.1dB, and the transmission efficiency is more than 99%.
