Abstract
A gradient-index optical film is configured to couple electromagnetic (EM) radiation into or out of a photonic integrated circuit.
Claims22
A gradient-index optical film configured to couple electromagnetic (EM) radiation into or out of a photonic device, the film comprising:
- at least one gradient-index function optimized for mode matching to a waveguide of the photonic device.
A gradient-index optical film for coupling oriented EM radiation to or from a photonic integrated circuit, photonic imaging device, optical phased array, light-field display, lightfield imager, holographic display, or a micro-emitter array, the film comprising:
- at least one gradient-index function optimized for mode matching to a waveguide.
