Efficient Mode Converter for Coupling between Fiber and Micrometer Size Silicon Waveguides

A low-loss polarization independent mode converter for coupling standard single mode fiber to a silicon chip is presented. For a micrometer size silicon waveguide, we demonstrate a coupling loss of 1-1.5 dB/facet.
