Abstract
Optical mode converters can significantly lower the coupling loss and simplify packaging of next generation optoelectronic devices. A new process which reduces the number of MOCVD regrowths required for integration of mode shape converters with active and passive waveguides is presented. A new wet etchant was effectively used in fabrication.
