Abstract:
An apparatus includes a substrate having a planar surface and an optical waveguide having an optical core located on said substrate. The optical core is along and may even be parallel to said surface. A cross section of the optical core varies throughout a segment of the optical core. A light guiding direction of the optical waveguide bends through, at least, 90 degrees along the segment.

Claim (Index 15):
The apparatus of  claim 11 , wherein the segments bend together such that a light propagation direction of the planar optical waveguides deviates to the left along the surface by at least 90 degrees and the segments bend together such that the light propagation direction of the planar optical waveguides deviates to the right along the surface by at least 90 degrees.
