Abstract
We present high-efficiency grating couplers for coupling between a single-mode fiber and nanophotonic
waveguides, fabricated both in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) and InP membranes using BenzoCycloButene wafer bonding.
The coupling efficiency is substantially increased by adding a gold bottom mirror to the structures. The measured
coupling efficiency to fiber is 69% for SOI grating couplers and 56% for bonded InP membrane grating couplers.
