Further increase in the density of integrated planar lightwave circuits (PLCs) depends on the introduction of compact guided-wave layout solutions. We describe a novel architecture for coiling multistage interferometric devices with densities reaching the theoretical limit. Our approach is validated by the design, fabrication, and deployment of state-of-the-art PLCs based on the proposed architecture for use in datacom and telecom applications.
