Re:Flip-Chip Integration of a GaSb Semiconductor Optical Amp... by MadameBanaan on Tuesday July 05, 2022 @11:08AM (#31989124)
I was intrigued by the claim of coupling without a spot size converter. But then I see that they are using a 3um thick silicon slab for the waveguide patterning.

I'm used to work in the 220nm CMOS based SOI slab, and It's virtually impossible to couple (even more in a laser cavity!) a GaSb mode to a the silicon mode without a spot size converter.
