Abstract
Embodiments described herein may be related to apparatuses, processes, and techniques related to a bidirectional optical grating coupler that may be used for testing. A photonic apparatus includes a first layer with electro-optical circuitry that is optically coupled with a bidirectional optical grating coupler. A second layer is physically coupled with a first side of the first layer and includes a first light path to optically coupled with the bidirectional optical grating coupler. A third layer is physically coupled with a second side of the first layer opposite the first side of the first layer, and includes a second light path that optically couples with the bidirectional grating coupler. Operational testing of the electro-optical circuitry is based in part on light received or transmitted through the second light path. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
