摘要
Grating couplers (GCs) are important for light to couple between optical fibers and photonic integrated circuits (PICs). The Bound State in Continuum (BIC) waveguides offer new functionalities for PIC. High-Q resonators, electro-optical modulator, and photodetectors can be built on it without etching steps. Due to the special waveguide geometry of BIC waveguides, a high efficiency GC is still missing. In this work, we demonstrated a subwavelength grating (SWG) GC for BIC waveguide with a coupling efficiency of 8 dB and a 1 dB bandwidth >70 nm. The device shows ultra-broadband behavior which is extremely useful for BIC-based PICs.
