Buried 3D silicon photonics spot-size convertors
A buried three-dimensional spot size converter has been demonstrated in silicon on insulator photonics platform for the first time enabling low loss optical mode conversion between micron and submicron scale waveguides, which provides new solutions for fibre (chip) to chip coupling for co-package optics applications.

Abstract

A buried three-dimensional spot size converter has been demonstrated in silicon on insulator photonics platform for the first time enabling low loss optical mode conversion between micron and submicron scale waveguides, which provides new solutions for fibre (chip) to chip coupling for co-package optics applications.
