Abstract

Embodiments may relate to a wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) transceiver that has a silicon waveguide layer coupled with a silicon nitride waveguide layer. In some embodiments, the silicon waveguide layer may include a tapered portion that is coupled with the silicon nitride waveguide layer. In some embodiments, the silicon waveguide layer may be coupled with a first oxide layer with a first z-height, and the silicon nitride waveguide layer may be coupled with a second oxide layer with a second z-height that is greater than the first z-height. Other embodiments may be described or claimed.
