ABSTRACT:
A low-loss optical interconnect is disclosed and may include an optical interconnect system with narrow and wide waveguides joining optical devices. The system may also comprise mode converters and waveguide bends. The waveguides may be made of silicon. Other exemplary aspects of the invention may comprise a continuous optical bend, whose radius of curvature at its endpoints is infinity and at its internal points is finite. The bend may be made of silicon. The width of the bend may vary along the bend. The system may comprise narrow and wide waveguides and a continuous bend.
