Abstract

We experimentally demonstrate a mode-insensitive waveguide crossing on lithium niobate-on-insulator using a multimode interference structure, achieving <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$&lt;0.22 \text{dB}$</tex> insertion loss and <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$&lt;-25 \text{dB}$</tex> crosstalk over 40 nm for <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$T E_{0}$</tex> and <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$T E_{1}$</tex> modes.
