APPARATUS FOR OPTICAL COUPLING AND SYSTEM FOR COMMUNICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18334386 Titled 'APPARATUS FOR OPTICAL COUPLING AND SYSTEM FOR COMMUNICATION'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes the invention of apparatuses for optical coupling and a communication system. One embodiment of the apparatus includes a substrate and a grating coupler. The grating coupler is placed on the substrate and consists of multiple coupling gratings arranged in a specific direction. These coupling gratings have gradually decreasing effective refractive indices along that direction.
Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed are apparatuses for optical coupling and a system for communication. In one embodiment, an apparatus for optical coupling including a substrate and a grating coupler is disclosed. The grating coupler is disposed on the substrate and includes a plurality of coupling gratings arranged along a first direction, wherein effective refractive indices of the plurality of coupling gratings gradually decrease along the first direction.
