Abstract:
Methods and systems for large silicon photonic interposers by stitching are disclosed and may include, in an optical communication system including a silicon photonic interposer, where the interposer includes a plurality of reticle sections: communicating an optical signal between two of the plurality of reticle sections utilizing a waveguide. The waveguide may include a taper region at a boundary between the two reticle sections, the taper region expanding an optical mode of the communicated optical signal prior to the boundary and narrowing the optical mode after the boundary. A continuous wave (CW) optical signal may be received in a first of the reticle sections from an optical source external to the interposer. The CW optical signal may be received in the interposer from an optical source assembly coupled to a grating coupler in the first of the reticle sections in the silicon photonic interposer.

Claim (Index 11):
A system for communication, the system comprising:\n an optical communication system comprising a silicon photonic interposer, wherein the silicon photonic interposer comprises a plurality of reticle sections, said integrated optical communication system being operable to:\n communicate an optical signal between two of said plurality of reticle sections utilizing a waveguide, wherein said waveguide comprises an increased width at a boundary between said two of said plurality of reticle sections, said increased width expanding an optical mode of said communicated optical signal prior to said boundary and narrowing said optical mode after said boundary.
