In recent years there has been a great number of optical devices realized in titanium in-diffused lithium niobate waveguides. One great advantage is the on-chip coupling efficiency (≥80%) which results from the good overlap between the fiber mode and the waveguide mode. A significant challenge is efficiently coupling between titanium in-diffused waveguides and material systems with much smaller optical mode dimensions, such as semiconductor waveguides or superconducting detectors. One approach is the use of tapers consisting of a high refractive index material such as silicon, and vertical evanescent coupling between the two waveguide structures. We theoretically and experimentally investigate this approach to increase the detection efficiency of superconducting integrated detectors, which would further increase the versatility of an already promising platform for integrated photonics.
