Single-Mode Limit and Bending Losses for Shallow Rib <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="TeX">$\hbox{Si}_{3}\hbox{N}_{4}}$</tex-math></inline-formula> Waveguides

The single-mode limit and bending losses for shallow rib waveguides are studied using the full vectorial film mode matching method. The maximum rib height for single-mode waveguides is found to be on the order of 10 nm for a rib width of 2 &#x03BC;m and a wavelength of 785 nm, with the exact val...
