Ultralow-loss, high-density SOI optical waveguide routing for macrochip interconnects

We report optical waveguides up to one meter long with 0.026 dB/cm loss fabricated in a 300nm thick SOI CMOS process. Combined with tight bends and compact interlayer grating couplers, we demonstrate a complete toolbox for ultralow-loss, high-density waveguide routing for macrochip interconnects.
