Computational Study of the Coupling Performances for a Long-Distance Vertical Grating Coupler

We present a high-efficiency silicon grating coupler design based on a left–right mirror-symmetric grating and a metal mirror. The coupler achieves nearly perfect 90-degree vertical coupling. When two SOI chips are placed face to face with a vertical working distance of 50 μm, the chip-to-chip inter...
