Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a technology in the field of optical communication, in particular to a passive end face / vertical coupling system for silicon-based optoelectronic chips. Background technique [0002] The current mainstream fiber-silicon chip waveguide coupling schemes include end-face coupling schemes realized by using silicon-based mode-spot converters or adiabatic coupling conditions, and vertical coupling schemes realized by using the diffraction properties of gratings. Among them, the end-face coupling scheme has the advantages of small package size requirements and high coupling efficiency, which is conducive to mass production. The vertical coupling scheme has the advantages of flexible placement and can be tested during silicon wafer processing. It is mostly used in a laboratory environment and is convenient for R&D and testing. However, there is currently no technology to combine the two coupling methods on the same optical chip and us...
