    Abstract

    The present disclosure relates to an in-plane photonic device for transmission of an optical signal across a gap, in particular an in-plane photonic device that is suitable for use in a photonic integrated circuit with one or more in-plane crossings of electrical connections and photonic waveguides. One embodiment relates to an in-plane photonic device for use in a photonic integrated circuit with in-plane crossings of electrical connections and photonic waveguides, comprising: at least one input optical waveguide; and at least one output optical waveguide; wherein the at least one input optical waveguide and the at least one output optical waveguides are positioned such that a gap between them separates the input and the output optical waveguide(s), and wherein the input and the output optical waveguides are configured for optical mode matching across the gap, such that an optical signal can be transmitted from the input optical waveguide to the output optical waveguide across the gap.
