A theoretical investigation of optical directional couplers based on silicon slot waveguides is carried out. The influence of various geometrical parameters on the coupling length is studied. A number of interpolation curves are extracted and presented for design purposes. Although the results are obtained for a specific technology, the theoretical approach is very general
