Answer 1

public static String[] split(String input, int length) throws IllegalArgumentException {

    if(length == 0 || input == null)
        return new String[0];

    int lengthD = length * 2;

    int size = input.length();
    if(size == 0)
        return new String[0];

    int rep = (int) Math.ceil(size * 1d / length);

    ByteArrayInputStream stream = new ByteArrayInputStream(input.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_16LE));

    String[] out = new String[rep];
    byte[]  buf = new byte[lengthD];

    int d = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < rep; i++) {

        try {
            d = stream.read(buf);
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        if(d != lengthD)
        {
            out[i] = new String(buf,0,d, StandardCharsets.UTF_16LE);
            continue;
        }

        out[i] = new String(buf, StandardCharsets.UTF_16LE);
    }
    return out;
}
