I am confused whether 80% is credible. I think in EME simulation, the source port1 is placed in the fiber rather than the facet of the edge coupler, and port2 is placed over the output waveguide. So the result by EME simulation is the total efficiency. But how to understand the relationship between 40% and 80%? I think the result of FDE should larger than that of EME, which is contrary to the result in my simulation. Look forward to your reply.
