Abstract
The Letter presents an optimum interconnection path for integrated opt ics circuits in the form of a simple parameter equation, which is not restricted to any particular core shape due to the planar nature of be nd radiation. Insertion loss is reduced by 20-30% over the conventiona l circular geometry. A BPM simulation verifies our results.
