A Better Way to Connect Fiber Optics to Computer Chips

NIST Inventors
Saeed Khan
This invention provides a way to efficiently connect optical fibers to semiconductor chips. It improves the transfer of light signals between the fiber and the chip, reducing loss and increasing performance. The design allows for better alignment and integration, making it easier to manufacture and

Fiber-To-Chip Coupler

NIST Inventors
Saeed Khan
A fiber-to-chip coupler includes a substrate, a waveguide on a top surface of the substrate, an optical fiber axially aligned to the waveguide, and a cap. The waveguide has a uniform region with uniform width and a tapered-waveguide region having a width that adiabatically increases from a minimum
