Abstract
The invention relates to an array of waveguides () comprising a set of coupled waveguides that are substantially parallel and oriented in a guidance direction (Y), the set of waveguides comprising a first zone () formed by waveguides coupled according to a first coupling coefficient, and a second zone () formed by waveguides coupled according to a second coupling coefficient that is different from the first coupling coefficient, characterized in that the second coupling coefficient is different from the first coupling coefficient in the guidance direction and in the direction (X) perpendicular to the guidance direction.
