Abstract

The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to three dimensional (3D) optical interconnect structures and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: a first structure having a grating coupler and a first optical waveguide structure; and a second structure having a second optical waveguide structure in alignment with the first optical waveguide structure and which has a modal effective index that matches to the first optical waveguide structure.
