Zusammenfassung:An optical device is disclosed which includes a waveguide that support a first optical mode in a first region and a second optical mode in a section region. The waveguide further includes single material guiding layer having a lower portion with a first taper and an upper portion with a second taper. Moreover, an optical device is disclosed which includes a waveguide having a single material guiding layer. The single material guiding layer a lower portion, which tapers from a first width to a second width, and an upper portion which tapers from the first width to a point.
