    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: 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: An optical waveguide structure includes a rotator having a dual-layer core. A first layer of the dual-layer core may include a tapering portion. A second layer of the dual-layer core may include a rib portion disposed on the tapering portion. The combination of the rib portion and the tapering portion may receive a pair of optical signals, one being polarized in a TE mode and the other being polarized in a TM mode, and convert them to a pair of TE mode optical signals.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe providing a decoupling capacitor on a first wafer (or substrate) that is then bonded to a second wafer to form an integrated decoupling capacitor. Using wafer bonding means that the decoupling capacitor can be added to the second wafer without having to take up space in the second wafer. In one embodiment, after bonding the first and second wafers, one or more vias are formed through the second wafer to establish an electrical connection between the decoupling capacitor and bond pads on a first surface of the second wafer. An electrical IC can then be flip chipped bonded to the first surface. As part of coupling the decoupling capacitor to the electrical IC, the decoupling capacitor is connected between the rails of a power source (e.g., VDD and VSS) that provides power to the electrical IC.

    Abstract: Aspects described herein include an optical waveguide emitter that includes a first optical waveguide and a second optical waveguide that are evanescently coupled and collectively configured to selectively propagate only a first mode of a plurality of optical modes. Each of the first optical waveguide and the second optical waveguide extend through an input waveguide section, a turning waveguide section, and an output waveguide section. One or more of the input waveguide section, the turning waveguide section, and the output waveguide section includes an optically active region. The optical waveguide emitter further includes a refractive index-increasing feature in the turning waveguide section.
