Abstract

PURPOSE:To protect a convergence grating coupler from the dust or a flaw, by coating it with a thin film. CONSTITUTION:A grating at a part of a convergence grating coupler 4 is formed in a very fine ruggedness part having the thickness of (g)=0.035mum, and a cycle (p)=0.52-0.75mum. And the grating is coated 8 with the thin film made of a material having a refractive index smaller than that of a grating layer, and chemical stability. The refractive index and the film thickness of a coating material is decided by considering the convergence characteristics, and the diffraction efficiency of the grating. In such way, the convergence grating coupler can be protected well from the dust and the flaw.
