    Abstract: Fabrication-tolerant on-chip multiplexers and demultiplexers are provides via a lattice filter interleaver configured to receive an input signal including a plurality of individual signals and to produce a first interleaved signal with a first subset of the plurality of individual signals and a second interleaved signal with a second subset of the plurality of individual signals; a first Bragg interleaver configured to receive the first interleaved signal and produce a first output signal including a first individual signal of the plurality of individual signals and a second output signal including a second individual signal of the plurality of individual signals; and a second Bragg interleaver configured to receive the second interleaved signal and produce a third output signal including a third individual signal of the plurality of individual signals and a fourth output signal including a fourth individual signal of the plurality of individual signals.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe using a double wafer bonding process to form a photonic device. In one embodiment, during the bonding process, an optical element (e.g., a high precision optical element) is optically coupled to an optical device in an active surface layer. In one example, the optical element comprises a nitride layer which can be patterned to form a nitride waveguide, passive optical multiplexer or demultiplexer, or an optical coupler.

    Abstract: Process margin relaxation is provided in relation to a compensated-for process via a first optical device, fabricated to satisfy an operational specification when a compensated-for process is within a first tolerance range; a second optical device, fabricated to satisfy the operational specification when the compensated-for process is within second tolerance range, different than the first tolerance range; a first optical switch connected to an input and configured to output an optical signal received from the input to one of the first optical device and the second optical device; and a second optical switch configured to combine outputs from the first optical device and the second optical device.

    Abstract: Aspects described herein include an optical apparatus comprising a multiple-stage arrangement of two-mode Bragg gratings comprising: at least a first Bragg grating of a first stage. The first Bragg grating is configured to transmit a first two wavelengths and to reflect a second two wavelengths of a received optical signal. The optical apparatus further comprises a second Bragg grating of a second stage. The second Bragg grating is configured to transmit one of the first two wavelengths and to reflect an other of the first two wavelengths. The optical apparatus further comprises a third Bragg grating of the second stage. The third Bragg grating is configured to transmit one of the second two wavelengths and to reflect an other of the second two wavelengths.
