Efficient silicon photonic micro-antenna for waveguide-to-free-space coupling Conferences

abstract

• We present the design of a 3.6-µm-long silicon antenna with vertical emission. Across the optical communication C band, diffraction efficiency is above of 0.9, back-reflection below -18 dB, and the emission angle shifts by only 4.3 ◦ .
