    Abstract: Structures for an optical power splitter and methods of forming a structure for an optical power splitter. The structure includes a first waveguide core having a first arm, a second waveguide core including a second arm, and a third waveguide core having a third arm laterally positioned between the first arm and the second arm. The third arm has a longitudinal axis. The first arm is longitudinally offset from the third arm parallel to the longitudinal axis such that the third arm and the first arm are laterally adjacent over a first overlap distance. The second arm is longitudinally offset from the third arm parallel to the longitudinal axis such that the third arm and the second arm are laterally adjacent over a second overlap distance. The first overlap distance is greater than the second overlap distance to provide an overlap offset.
