Abstract
Near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) is a valuable tool for measuring modal propagation parameters including loss, effective index, and coupling coefficients of a variety of waveguide structures. Examples are provided of simple waveguide sections and bends as well as an on-chip optical clock distribution system using an H-tree containing splitters and leaky-mode polysilicon photodiodes.
