Abstract
We have designed and fabricated an efficient grating coupler for coupling light between optical fibers and silicon-on-insulator waveguides. The coupler consists of 88-nm-wide slits, etched at an angle of 58deg to the surface normal. They are defined by direct etching with a focused ion beam, using iodine gas and an alumina hard mask. The measured efficiency is 46%
