This structure was fabricated with a wet-etched process compatible with the COBRA active passive integration process. Implementing the vertical coupler enables on-wafer characterization of optical signals in an early stage of the fabrication process.enVertical coupling mirror for on-wafer optical probing of photonic integrated circuitsconference paper
