摘要：

In this paper, a universal LP01 to any LPlm, mode converter structure is proposed based on a circular waveguide. As examples, nine mode converters from LP01 to LP02, LP03, LP04, LP05, LP06, LP07, LP11, LP21 and LP(31)( )are designed. It is shown that an insertion loss of less than 3 dB is achieved over the entire C-band for all the mode converters. Furthermore, two mode (de)multiplexers based on directional couplers are demonstrated, showing an insertion loss less than 2.5 dB and a crosstalk less than -10 dB over the C-band.
