Monolithic integration of three-dimensional multimode interference couplers with silicon photonic wires via self-profile transformation

A novel 3-D MMI coupler with silicon photonic wires is demonstrated using self-profile transformation for the first time. The preliminary simulation results show the low excess loss of 0.27 dB.
