Abstract:
A silicon photonic (SiPh) packaging assembly includes a SiPh interposer and a wafer. The SiPh interposer has one or more optical gratings disposed thereon to couple an optical signal traversing the wafer. The wafer is bonded to the interposer, with the wafer including one or more microlenses, each microlens aligned with a respective optical grating and designed to direct the optical signal traversing the wafer at a desired angle.
Abstract:
Optical modules are disclosed. An example optical module includes a substrate comprising a grating coupler, an optical connector removably coupled to the substrate adjacent the grating coupler to optically couple the optical connector and the grating coupler and an integrated circuit coupled to the substrate.
Abstract:
An example device in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure includes a photodetector disposed on a substrate, and a mirror disposed on the photodetector. The mirror is to reflect light back into the photodetector. The mirror includes a reflective layer and a second layer. The second layer is disposed between the reflective layer and the photodetector.
Abstract:
An array of monolithic wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) is provided with quantum well intermixing. Each VCSEL includes a bottom distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), an upper distributed Bragg reflector, and a laser cavity therebetween. The laser cavity includes a multiple quantum well (MQW) layer sandwiched between a lower separate confinement heterostructure (SCH) and an upper SCH layer. Each MQW region experiences a different amount of quantum well intermixing and concomitantly a different lasing wavelength shift.
Abstract:
In the examples provided herein, an apparatus has a first substrate upon which one or more first filters have been fabricated on a first surface of the first substrate. The apparatus also has a second substrate upon which one or more second filters have been fabricated on a second surface of the second substrate, wherein the one or more first filters and the one or more second filters each transmit a different band of wavelengths. Additionally, the apparatus has a bonding material that bonds the first substrate to the second substrate.
