摘要
A method to measure the end-output coupling efficiencies between silicon wire waveguides(SWWs)and optical fibers is proposed and demonstrated.The end-output coupling efficiency is calculated through four measured counting rates based on the correlated photon pair generation in the SWW.It provides a way to investigate and optimize the coupling processes at the input and output end of the optical waveguides separately.
