Abstract: An optical assembly includes a combination of laser sources emitting radiation, focused by a combination of lenses into optical waveguides. The optical waveguide and the laser source are permanently attached to a common carrier, while at least one of the lenses is attached to a holder that is an integral part of the carrier, but is free to move initially. Micromechanical techniques are used to adjust the position of the lens and holder, and then fix the holder it into place permanently using integrated heaters with solder.

Abstract: A MEMS based alignment technology based on mounting an optical component on a released micromechanical lever configuration that uses multiple flexures rather than a single spring. The optical component may be a lens. The use of multiple flexures may reduce coupling between lens rotation and lens translation, and reduce effects of lever handle warping on lens position. The device can be optimized for various geometries.

Abstract: Light from discrete red, blue, and green lasers are combined into a single output using a planar lightwave circuit (PLC). In some embodiments some light from an output of the PLC is reflected back to the lasers, and in some embodiments the reflected light is primarily of one of the red, green, or blue wavelengths. In some embodiments multiple lasers of slightly differing wavelengths are provided as light sources for some or all of the red, blue, and green light.

Abstract: An optical transceiver may include a circuit board, lasers, and a PLC including optical multiplexers and demultiplexers. The PLC may be coupled to fiber optic lines at a forward edge of the PLC, with a rear edge of the PLC receiving light for transmission generated by the lasers. Light received at the forward edge of the PLC may be demultiplexed into data channels and routed to a top surface of the PLC for optoelectronic conversion by photodetectors. In some embodiments each data channel is routed into a corresponding plurality of waveguides, with each of the corresponding plurality of waveguides providing light to the same photodetector. In some embodiments at least some receive side electronic circuitry, other than photodetectors, is stacked on top of the PLC.
