Two-Conductor Ports Enabling Broadband Operation of Substrateless Microscale Silicon Waveguides

We extend the operation bandwidth of substrateless all-silicon waveguides beyond the single-mode region. This requires a suitably broadband port-access scheme, as well as careful management of undesired higher order modes. It is found that a length of two-conductor waveguide serves both purposes. In...
