Dual-layer Edge Coupler (Spot Size Converter) for fiber-to-chip coupling.

+

This component manages the adiabatic transition between a high-index +contrast core and a secondary slab/cladding layer (e.g., SiN to SOI).

+
+
Parameters:
+
    +

  • name (str) – Unique identifier for the device cell.

    • +

  • w_in (float) – Input waveguide width in microns.

    • +

  • L_in (float) – Length of the initial input section.

    • +

  • Ltp1 (float) – Lengths of the first, second, and third taper sections respectively.

    • +

  • Ltp2 (float) – Lengths of the first, second, and third taper sections respectively.

    • +

  • Ltp3 (float) – Lengths of the first, second, and third taper sections respectively.

    • +

  • L_end (float, optional) – Length of the final facet extension (default is 0).

    • +

  • w_tip_core (float, optional) – Width of the core taper tip in microns (default is 0.2).

    • +

    • +

  • w_box_end (float, optional) – Dimensions for the deep-trench/oxide box clearing.

    • +

  • L_box_end (float, optional) – Dimensions for the deep-trench/oxide box clearing.

    • +

  • w_DT (float, optional) – Deep Trench width.

    • +

  • xs_SiN (str, optional) – Cross-section name for the Nitride layer (default is “sin”).

    • +

  • layer_SiN_slab (str, optional) – GDS layer name for the SiN slab.

    • +

  • layer_DT (str, optional) – GDS layer for the deep trench/oxide facet.

    • +

  • xs_Trench (str, optional) – Cross-section name for the air trench.

    • +

  • layer_top_cover (str, optional) – GDS layer for the optical pad/top cladding opening.

    • +

  • layer_dum_exl_be (str, optional) – Layer for dummy exclusion (BEOL).

    • +

  • angle_tile (float, optional) – Facet tilt angle in degrees to reduce back-reflection (default is 8).
