The figures are as follows:

Fig. 3. Linear fitted optical losses of fabricated (1) silicon rib waveguides, (b) poly-si waveguides, slot waveguides (c) MOS-WG-C, slot waveguides (d) MOS-WG-B, slot waveguides (e) MOS-WG-A, and (f) mode transition tapers. 

Fig. 7. (a) Optical transmission spectra of a reference waveguide and a MZI, which has two arms consisted of 0.46 mm long MOS-WG-A waveguides. The inset is the GDS-II design of the MZI structure. (b) Zoomed in spectra around wavelength 1550 nm.
