Compliant Polymer Interface Demonstration with Standard Plug-In Connection to Fiber Cables
Abstract
We demonstrate a mechanically-compliant polymer interface, between standard fiber cables and nanophotonic waveguides, with passive self-alignment at both the fiber and the chip connections. We show a peak transmission of -1.8dB with less than 0.7dB penalty over a 100nm bandwidth and all polarizations.
