摘要: Structures for a wavelength-division multiplexing filter and methods of forming a structure for a wavelength-division multiplexing filter. A waveguide core of the wavelength-division multiplexing filter includes a first bend having a first curvature and a second bend having a second curvature different than the first curvature. The structure further includes a waveguide core region having a first end surface, a second end surface, and a bend arranged between the first and second end surfaces. The bend is positioned over the first bend of the waveguide core in an overlapping relationship.

摘要: Structures for an edge coupler and methods of forming a structure for an edge coupler. The structure includes a waveguide core over a dielectric layer, and a back-end-of-line stack over the waveguide core and the dielectric layer. The back-end-of-line stack includes an interlayer dielectric layer, a side edge, a first feature, a second feature, and a third feature laterally arranged between the first feature and the second feature. The first feature, the second feature, and the third feature are positioned on the interlayer dielectric layer adjacent to the side edge, and the third feature has an overlapping relationship with a tapered section of the waveguide core.

摘要: Structures for an optical power modulator and methods of fabricating a structure for an optical power modulator. A waveguide core includes a longitudinal axis, a first section, and a second section spaced from the first section along the longitudinal axis. An active layer includes a portion positioned along the longitudinal axis between the first section and the second section of the waveguide core. The active layer contains a material configured to have a first state with a first refractive index in response to an applied stimulus and a second state with a second refractive index different from the first refractive index.

摘要: Structures for a photodetector and methods of fabricating a structure for a photodetector. A photodetector includes a photodetector pad coupled to a waveguide core and a light-absorbing layer coupled to the photodetector pad. The light-absorbing layer has a body, a first taper that projects laterally from the body toward the waveguide core, and a second taper that projects laterally from the body toward the waveguide core. The photodetector pad includes a tapered section that is laterally positioned between the first taper and the second taper of the light-absorbing layer.

摘要: Structures including a grating coupler and methods of forming a structure that includes a grating coupler. The grating coupler includes segments that are positioned with a spaced relationship on a slab layer. The segments contain an active material configured to have a first state with a first refractive index and a second state with a second refractive index in response to an applied stimulus. The first and second states may be produced by applying different sets of bias voltages to the segments as the applied stimulus.

摘要: Structures for an optical power splitter and methods of forming a structure for an optical power splitter. A first waveguide core provides an input port, and second and third waveguide cores provide respective output ports. A non-linear waveguide taper is coupled to the first waveguide core at a first interface and is coupled to the second and third waveguide cores at a second interface. The non-linear waveguide taper includes a first curved section having a first width dimension that increases with increasing longitudinal distance from the first interface. The non-linear waveguide taper includes a second curved section having a second width dimension that increases with increasing longitudinal distance from the second interface. The first and second curved sections join at a longitudinal location at which the first and second width dimensions are each equal to a maximum width of the non-linear waveguide taper.
