Abstract
In this paper, we develop a multiple output laser with 14 outputs. The multiple output laser composes of an 8 X 8 arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) and a semiconductor optical amplifier. We combine these two elements to achieve a ring configuration in this experiment. The multiple output laser with AWG can provide multichannel of light sources simultaneously. The characteristics of all unconnected fiber arms of the 8 X 8 AWG multiplexer are measured.
