| 摘要 | An apparatus has an input surface configured to receive energy emitted from an energy source in a first mode. A mode order converter is configured to convert the energy from the first mode to a second mode. The waveguide of the apparatus has an input end disposed proximate the input surface and configured to receive the energy in the first mode. The waveguide has an output end disposed proximate a media-facing surface and configured to deliver energy in the second mode. The output end is at an oblique angle to a cross-track line at an intersection of the media-facing surface and a substrate-parallel plane. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. An apparatus, comprising: an input region comprising an input surface configured to receive energy emitted from an energy source in a first mode; a mode order converter configured to convert the energy from the first mode to a second mode; a waveguide comprising top and bottom cladding layers and a core disposed on a substrate-parallel plane therebetween, an input end disposed proximate the input surface and configured to receive the energy in the first mode, and an output end disposed proximate a media-facing surface and configured to deliver energy in the second mode, the output end being at a first oblique angle to a cross-track line at an intersection of the media-facing surface and the substrate-parallel plane; and a near-field transducer located proximate the core and proximate the media-facing surface. | ||
