(3+1)D-printed adiabatic 1-to-N broadband couplers

We report single-mode 3D optical couplers leveraging adiabatic power transfer towards up to 4 output ports. We use the CMOS compatible additive (3+1)D \emph{flash}-TPP printing for fast and scalable fabrication. Coupling optical losses of such devices are reduced below $\sim$~0.06~dB by tailoring the coupling and waveguides geometry, and we demonstrate almost octave-spanning broadband functionality from 520~nm to 980~nm.
