Inverse Design of Tapers by Bio-Inspired Algorithms
Journal of Microwaves, Optoelectronics and Electromagnetic Applications, 2020 The efficiency of optical power transferred between two bidimensional waveguides, continuous waveguide and periodic subwavelength waveguide has been designed and optimized by using a taper composed by variable length segments (0.03 − 0.27 µm). Waveguides
