Abstract

A photonic module, comprising a first waveguide; a second waveguide, disposed on an opposing side of the first waveguide to a substrate; and, a coupling section. One of the first waveguide and the second waveguide is formed of crystalline silicon. The other of the first waveguide and the second waveguide is formed of amorphous silicon. The coupling section is configured to couple light between the first waveguide and the second waveguide. Such a silicon photonic module has enhanced coupling and transmission properties in contrast to conventional modules.
