Abstract
Proposed is an optical component comprising: at least one first waveguide, the first waveguide comprising at least one partially reflective output end facet, wherein light passing the output end facet of the first waveguide propagates along a first propagation direction, and at least one second waveguide receiving the light passing the output end facet of the first waveguide at an input end facet of the second waveguide and guiding the light in a second propagation direction, wherein the output end facet and the input end facet are spaced from each other; and wherein the first waveguide and the second waveguide are arranged such that the first propagation direction and the second propagation direction are different. This proposal provides a concept, which is more efficient in view of coupling efficiency between the waveguides of the optical component.
