Nascent data-intensive emerging technologies are mandating low-loss, short-range interconnects, whereas existing interconnects suffer from high losses and low aggregate data throughput owing to a lack of efficient interfaces. Here, we report an efficient 22-Gbit/s terahertz fiber link using a tapered silicon interface that serves as a coupler between the dielectric waveguide and hollow core fiber. We investigated the fundamental optical properties of hollow-core fibers by considering fibers with 0.7-mm and 1-mm core diameters. We achieved a coupling efficiency of ∼ 60% with a 3-dB bandwidth of 150 GHz in the 0.3-THz band over a 10 cm fiber.
