  • Patent number: 7269326
    Abstract: The present I/O ports comprise (1) a layered structure comprising (a) an unpatterned superstrate having at least one layer, (b) an unpatterned substrate having at least one layer, and (c) at least one intermediate layer sandwiched between the unpatterned superstrate and the unpatterned substrate, (2) a coupling region that is within the at least one intermediate layer and that comprises an arrangement of at least one optical scattering element and (3) at least one output waveguide. The present I/O ports can be effectively used in balanced photonic circuits and unbalanced photonic circuits.
    Type: Grant
