Abstract
A photonic system may include a PIC and an interposer. The PIC may include a first SiN waveguide. The interposer may include second and third SiN waveguides substantially vertically aligned with the first SiN waveguide in an overlap region of a first waveguide stack that may include the first, second, and third waveguides in the first waveguide stack. Within the overlap region, the second SiN waveguide may include vertical tapering that increases a thickness of the second SiN waveguide from an initial thickness to an increased thickness toward the first SiN waveguide. The first waveguide stack may further include a non-overlap region in which the interposer does not overlap the PIC. The non-overlap region may include the second and third SiN waveguides. Within the non-overlap region, the second SiN waveguide may maintain the increased thickness and the second and third SiN waveguides may include a first lateral bend.
