Abstract: Fiber couplers usually take a lot of space on photonic integrated circuits due to the large mode-size mismatch between the waveguide and fiber, especially when a fiber with larger core is utilized, such as a… read more here.

Abstract: In this Letter, we propose and demonstrate an integrated mode-size converter (MSC) with a compact footprint, low losses, and a broad bandwidth. By exploiting a parabolic mirror, the divergent light from a narrow waveguide (450 nm)… read more here.
