Polymer optical waveguides using Epocore/Epoclad stack has a core dimension of 50 microns.

What would be the best way to launch light in such polymer waveguides from VCSEL (Vertically mounted "Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting LASERs").

So far I understood-

1) Grating couplers would not work.

2) 45 degree mirror seems to be the solution but the fabrication is too much complex (Attached reference)

Please advice. Thank you!
