BEOL Waveguide Integration and Formation of Hybrid BEOL / FEOL Waveguides

Exclusively Licensed

An integrated structure and method of formation provide a lower level waveguide having a core of a first material and a higher level waveguide having a core of a second material and a coupling region for coupling the two waveguides together. The different core materials provided different coupled waveguides having different light loss characteristics.
