Abstract
Methods and systems for large silicon photonic interposers by stitching are disclosed and may include, in an optical communication system including a silicon photonic interposer, where the interposer includes a plurality of reticle sections: communicating an optical signal between first and second reticle sections utilizing a waveguide. The waveguide may include a taper region at a boundary between the two reticle sections, the taper region expanding an optical mode of the communicated optical signal prior to the boundary and narrowing the optical mode after the boundary. A continuous wave (CW) optical signal may be received in a first of the reticle sections from an optical source external to the interposer. The CW optical signal may be received in the interposer from an optical source assembly coupled to a grating coupler in the first of the reticle sections in the silicon photonic interposer.
