| Abstract(in English) | By applying the Mosquito method, we fabricate polymer waveguide based spot-size converter (SSC) enabling low-loss coupling between Si waveguides and standard single-mode fibers (SMFs). A circular core whose diameter symmetrically varies in the axial direction is the unique structure of the fabricated SSC realized with the Mosquito method. It is experimentally confirmed that the mode-field diameter of the fabricated SSC is converted from 3.8 μm to 5.6 μm in the axial direction. The insertion loss of the fabricated SSC is 6.94 dB at 1550-nm wavelength. Furthermore, a －0.5-dB misalignment tolerance between the fabricated SSC and a standard SMF is as large as ±2.1 μm. |
