We present a CMOS compatible mass manufacturable, compact Si/SiO(2) multilayer GRIN lens mode size converter from standard single mode fiber to 300 nm-thick Si waveguide. The fiber-to-GRIN lens coupling loss is 2.6 ± 0.3 dB (coupling efficiency: 51~60%) with optimized focal length of 11.6~11.8 μm and Si/SiO(2) multilayer thickness of 7.4 μm.
