The edge-coupler of fiber-to-chip with ultra-low coupling loss based on double-layer silicon waveguides

The edge-coupler of fiber-to-chip with ultra-low coupling loss is demonstrated on SOI platform. The edge-coupler is consisted of the cantilevered SiO2 waveguide, the amorphous silicon (α-Si) nano taper and the crystal silicon (c-Si) nano tapers. The thin α-Si layer is deposited on the c-Si layer to...
