ABSTRACT:
A waveguide-semiconductor coupling device includes a waveguide structure that includes a multimode interferometer (MMI) structure so as to minimize the reflections of TE modes in the coupling device. A mesa structure is coupled to the waveguide structure so as to minimize the reflections of TM modes in the coupling device.
