Efficient single-etch surface grating couplers in silicon nitride platforms for telecom and datacom wavebands

We present designs and experiments of single-etched amorphous silicon (α-Si) surface grating couplers on a silicon nitride (SiN) waveguide, operating at the telecom (C-band) and datacom (O-band) wavebands. SiN-only grating couplers demonstrate experimental coupling loss of -3.9 dB at 1.55 μm wavelen...
