Zusammenfassung:Shape optimization techniques were first developed in the context of mechanical engineering and, more recently, applied to photonic components for data communication. Here, motivated by the growing application potential of mid-infrared photonics driven by chemical sensing and spectroscopy, we present the design by shape optimization of passive components operating in this wavelength range. A focus is placed on the creation of designs that are fabricable and robust to manufacturing uncertainties.
