发明名称 Method and system for optically coupling a waveguide and a fiber
摘要 An optical system includes a substrate and a first waveguide embedded on the substrate. The first waveguide has a first end. The optical system also includes an optical fiber optically coupled to the first waveguide and bounded to the substrate. The optical fiber has a first end with a flat portion forming a D-shaped cross section. The flat portion of the first end of the optical fiber is disposed adjacent to the first end of the first waveguide, thereby facilitating optical coupling between the first waveguide and the optical fiber.

主权项 1. An optical system comprising: a substrate; a first waveguide embedded on the substrate, the first waveguide having a first end, wherein the first end of the first waveguide is inversely tapered such that a cross section of the first waveguide decreases toward a tip of the first end of the first waveguide; and an optical fiber optically coupled to the first waveguide and bounded to the substrate, the optical fiber having a first end with a flat portion forming a D-shaped cross section; wherein the flat portion of the first end of the optical fiber is disposed adjacent to the first end of the first waveguide, thereby facilitating optical coupling between the first waveguide and the optical fiber.
