摘要	The present invention is a three-dimensional tapered waveguide coupler (2, 3) capable of interconnecting electro-optical devices (4, 5) with differing optical mode profiles. The ends of the waveguide are configured to match the optical mode profiles of the electro-optical devices that the waveguide interconnects. The waveguide adiabatically transmits the fundamental mode of the photo-optic signal from the electro-optical (4, 5) device at the waveguide's input end (6) to a different electro-optical device (4, 5) at the waveguide's output end (1). A single couple can be configured with one or more waveguides, each waveguide having different optical mode profiles at either end and different optical transmission characteristics.
其他摘要	本发明是一种三维锥形波导耦合器（2,3），其能够将具有不同光学模式分布的电光器件（4,5）互连。波导的端部被配置为匹配波导互连的电光器件的光学模式分布。波导绝对地将光信号的基模从波导输入端（6）处的电光（4,5）器件传输到波导输出端的不同电光器件（4,5）（ 1）。单个耦合可以配置有一个或多个波导，每个波导在任一端具有不同的光学模式分布和不同的光传输特性。
主权项	An optical waveguide coupler for interconnection of a plurality of electro-optical devices that transfer a photo-optic signal, comprising: a three-dimensional tapered waveguide, having an input end and an output end and a first index of refraction, said waveguide is configured to adiabatically transmit the fundamental mode of the photo-optic signal from said input end to said output end in a transmission direction, said input end of said waveguide matches the optical mode profile of the electro-optical device that transmits the photo-optic signal at said input end, said output end of said waveguide matches the optical mode profile of the electro-optical device that receives the photo-optic signal at said output end of said waveguide; and a structural member coupled to said waveguide, said structural member has a second index of refraction that is unequal to said first index of refraction, said structural member physically supports said waveguide and allows for proper alignment of said waveguide to the electro-optical devices to be coupled.
