VERTICAL BEND WAVEGUIDE COUPLER FOR PHOTONICS APPLICATIONS |
| 摘要 |
An optical waveguide structure may include a dielectric layer having a top surface, an optical waveguide structure, and an optical coupler embedded within the dielectric layer. The optical coupler may have both a substantially vertical portion that couples to the top surface of the dielectric layer and a substantially horizontal portion that couples to the optical waveguide structure. The substantially vertical portion and the substantially horizontal portion are separated by a curved portion. |

1. An optical waveguide structure, comprising:
a dielectric layer having a top surface; an optical waveguide structure; and an optical coupler disposed on the dielectric layer, the optical coupler having both a substantially vertical portion that couples to the top surface of the dielectric layer and a substantially horizontal portion that couples to the optical waveguide structure, the substantially vertical portion and the substantially horizontal portion being separated by a curved portion, wherein the optical coupler tapers in width from the substantially vertical portion to the substantially horizontal portion. |
