摘要:
The invention relates to a pigtailing method, i.e., the invention provides an optical device comprising a substrate on which are integrated a layered optical waveguide component (3) and optical fibre ends (13). The optical fibre ends are positioned in grooves (10). The method involves providing a substrate (7) comprising grooves (10), notably V-shaped grooves, with a separately made optical waveguide component (3). The component (3) is made on a separate flat substrate (1) and released by virtue of a releasable layer (2) present on the flat substrate (1). An advantageous releasable layer is made of a water-soluble salt. The invention also pertains to flexible waveguide sheets (3) such as can be used in the above method or, if provided with waveguide channels (12), as flexible waveguide components themselves.
摘要:
The invention pertains to a process for the hybrid integration of at least one opto-electronic component (9) and a waveguide (14) provided on a substrate (13), in which process one or more opto-electronic components are provided on a connector piece (6) and the connector piece (6) is placed on the substrate (13) and moved up to the edge of the waveguide (14), with the shape of the connector piece (6) being wholly or largely complementary, and the connector piece (6) when it abuts against the edge of the waveguide (14) having only one degree of freedom in the plane of the substrate (13). The process provides an easy way of producing integrated electro-optical devices.
