The excel file contains experimental data for the paper:

• Table 1
Optimised design parameters for the 3-channel AMMI

• Table 2
Optical properties of the SiNx layers. The refractive index (n) was estimated from
ellipsometry measurements. The propagation losses (PL) were measured using the cutback
method.

• Table 3
Summary of the spectral parameters of AMMIs fabricated SiNx layers with different
refractive indices.

• Fig. 2
Insertion loss as a function Wa for the C and O bands when WMDW = 25m and t = 0.3rad.

• Fig. 3
Optimised Li for the: (a) O-band and (b) C-band when WMDW = 25m with optimised
 angle.

• Fig. 5
Spectral response of the studied 3-channel AMMI devices on stoichiometric SiNx (n = 2)
at a temperature of 20°C. (a) Simulated spectra (O-band), (b) simulated spectra (C-band), (c)measured spectra (O-band) and (d) measured spectra (C-band)

• Fig. 6
Central wavelength (i) as a function of the refractive index of the SiNx layers.

• Fig. 7
Sensitivity of the spectral shift as a function of the fabrication error in the width of the
AMMI’s multimode waveguide observed with devices fabricated on different material layers for
the (a) O-band and (b) C-band.

• Fig. 8
Central wavelength as a function of temperature for AMMIs fabricated on different SiNx
layers operating in the (a) O-band and (b) C-band.
