    Abstract

    Integrated diffractive optical mode converter, consisting of a diffractive optical element (DOE) and a slab waveguide, is used for fiber-to-waveguide coupling. The phase of the DOE is generally designed by optimization algorithm. In this paper, the precise design, a new method with one more restrictive way, is adopted to design the diffractive optical mode converter for fiber-to-waveguide coupling. Through this method, the intensity of any point on the output plane is fully filled with the required demand. Compared with what previously published, the coupling loss of the precise designed converter is lower.
