Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for coupling together at least two waveguides according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Arrangements for coupling optical waveguides to one another have a variety of applications in the implementation of components and for providing connections between optical components in the integrated optics.
  • Component properties are particularly large, since optimization is only possible to a limited extent, e.g. through the use of mechanically clamped quantum wells and barriers or partial rearrangement (disordering) of quantum wells.
  • the object of the invention specified in claim 1 is to provide an arrangement for coupling optical waveguides to one another which is compatible with planar waveguides, in particular ribbed waveguides.
  • the arrangement according to the invention connects vertically superimposed waveguides.
  • the waveguides each have at least one core layer. At least one of the waveguides is designed as a ridge or rib waveguide.
  • the waveguides are spatially separated by a cladding layer with a lower refractive index than the core layers.
  • the cladding layer effects an optical coupling of the two waveguides, so that the performance of the basic optical mode of the coupling structure in both
  • Waveguides is guided. If at least part of the core layer or a cladding layer of a waveguide is removed or added, the optical power is forced into one of the two waveguides. If the construction of the coupling arrangement along the axis of the wave propagation is changed sufficiently weakly, the spatial shift of the optical power in the coupler takes place adiabatically, i.e. without losses due to optical radiation.
  • the arrangement according to the invention advantageously produces a transition from phase mismatch to phase match between the two waveguides.
  • the cross-sectional taper within the overlap region of the two waveguides causes the transition from phase mismatch to phase adaptation between the two waveguides.
  • phase matching in particular the phase velocities of the optical waves each guided in the two waveguides are the same.
  • the arrangement according to the invention can be used on all substrates, for example substrates made of SiO 2 , Si 3 N 4 , Al 2 O 3 , SiGe, with suitability for optical components.

  • the invention advantageously also provides an arrangement for coupling at least two optical components, each of which has a core layer belonging to an optical waveguide for guiding an optical wave of a certain wavelength, which has the features specified in the characterizing part of claim 11.
  • This arrangement is particularly advantageously suitable for the optical connection of optical components with a ribbed waveguide structure. Certain laser diodes in particular have such a structure.
  • Preferred and advantageous embodiments of the arrangement according to claim 11 emerge from claims 12 to 17.
  • Overlap area not essential. Also, phase matching in an overlap area is not essential, so that the overlapping core layers can be the core layers of single-mode waveguides.
  • An arrangement according to one of claims 11 to 17 greatly simplifies the integration of the components. Since the optical field can be expanded to a greater extent in the waveguide 4 containing the further core layer, the coupling of the arrangement to glass fiber waveguides is advantageously facilitated.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système dans lequel les couches centrales (30, 40) de deux guides d'ondes optiques (3, 4) sont disposées de manière parallèle à distance (d34) l'une de l'autre et se chevauchent dans une zone de chevauchement (6). Dans cette zone, au moins un des guides d'ondes présente un rétrécissement (9) de sa section transversale. Il en résulte que dans la zone de chevauchement, une onde guidée dans un guide d'ondes passe entièrement dans l'autre guide d'ondes.
