Abstract
For optical waveguide sensing, the challenging problems lie in the coupling efficiency and alignment tolerance [1]. This paper presents two different types of waveguides with tapers for evanescent sensing to relieve these problems. The first waveguide is SiC waveguide with 3D tapered coupler and the other is SU8 standing waveguide with horizontal tapered coupler. The design, simulation and fabrication of both structures will be illustrated.
