Abstract: An interposer for coupling an optical conduit to an optical component, said interposer comprising: (a) an optical component; (b) a first lens component having a first lens; (c) a second lens component having a second lens, said first and second lenses being configured to define an expanded-beam coupling therebetween; (d) at least one reflective surface optically coupled with said second lens; (e) a first optical path at least partially defined between said optical component and said first lens to accommodate a diverging light beam from said optical component to said first lens; (f) a second optical path at least partially defined between said second lens and said at least one reflective surface to accommodate a converging light beam from said second lens and said at least one reflective surface; and (g) a separable interface along said second optical path or at said expanded-beam coupling.

Abstract: An optical assembly comprising: (a) a substrate having a first planar surface; (b) an optical component connected to the substrate and having a second planar surface parallel to the first surface and at least one first optical axis; (c) a plurality of optical fiber stubs having a certain diameter and being disposed at least partially between the substrate and the optical component; (d) at least one of the substrate or the optical component having one or more grooves on the first or second surfaces, respectively, such that each groove is configured to receive one of the plurality of fiber stubs such that each of the fiber stubs protrudes a first distance from the first or second surface to space the first surface the first distance from the second surface; and (e) a least one optical conduit having a second optical axis, the optical conduit being disposed on the first or second surface such that the second optical axis is optically aligned with the first optical axis.
