    Abstract: In one embodiment, a waveguide includes an upstream portion, a downstream portion, and an intermediate portion between the upstream portion and the downstream portion. A first band is disposed on an insulating layer, the first band oriented along a first direction. A first lateral strip and a second lateral strip are disposed on either side of the first band, the first lateral strip and the second lateral strip being thinner or interrupted along the intermediate portion.

    Abstract: An E/O phase modulator may include a waveguide having an insulating substrate, a single-crystal silicon strip and a polysilicon strip of a same thickness and doped with opposite conductivity types above the insulating substrate, and an insulating interface layer between the single-crystal silicon strip and polysilicon strip. Each of the single-crystal silicon strip and polysilicon strip may be laterally continued by a respective extension, and a respective electrical contact coupled to each extension.

    Abstract: A photonic system includes a first photonic circuit having a first face and a second photonic circuit having a second face. The first photonic circuit comprises first wave guides, and, for each first wave guide, a second wave guide covering the first wave guide, the second wave guides being in contact with the first face and placed between the first face and the second face, the first wave guides being located on the side of the first face opposite the second wave guides. The second photonic circuit comprises, for each second wave guide, a third wave guide covering the second wave guide. The first photonic circuit comprises first positioning devices projecting from the first face and the second photonic circuit comprises second positioning devices projecting from the second face, at least one of the first positioning devices abutting one of the second positioning devices in a first direction.

    Abstract: An optical waveguide termination device includes a waveguide and metal vias surrounding an end portion of the waveguide. The end portion of the waveguide has a transverse cross-sectional area that decreases towards its distal end. The metal vias are orthogonal to a same plane, with the same plane being orthogonal to the transverse cross-section. The metal vias absorb light originating from the end portion when a light signal propagates through the waveguide, and the metal vias and the end portion provide that an effective index of an optical mode to be propagated through the waveguide progressively varies in the end portion. Additional metal vias may be present along the waveguide upstream of the end portion, with the additional metal vias bordering the waveguide upstream of the end portion providing that the effective index of an optical mode to be propagated through the waveguide varies progressively toward the end portion.
