Abstract
Optical waveguides may include a substrate and a silicon based optical waveguide supported on the substrate. The silicon based optical waveguide may include a central ridge portion and a plurality of spaced apart wing portions connected through connecting portions. The number of wing portions may be greater than two. The central ridge portion may have a central ridge lateral width extent greater than a lateral width extent of at least one of the wing portions. Optical waveguides may include a substrate, a silicon based optical waveguide supported on the substrate, and a concentrator supported on the substrate and positioned within a lateral width extent of the silicon based optical waveguide and outside of a height extent of the silicon based optical waveguide. The optical waveguides may be included as part of an optical modulator.
