Optimization of Grating Coupler over Single-Mode Silicon-on-Insulator Waveguide to Reach < 1 dB Loss through Deep-Learning-Based Inverse Design

Grating couplers are essential components in silicon photonics that facilitate the coupling of light between waveguides and fibers. Optimization of the grating couplers to reach <1 dB loss when coupling to single-mode fibers (SMFs) has been reported in the literature, but this was based on silico...
