PLC architectures and fabrication techniques for providing electrical and photonic integration of a photonic components with a semiconductor substrate. In the exemplary embodiment, the PLC is to accommodate optical input and/or output (I/O) as well as electrically couple to a microelectronic chip. One or more photonic chip or optical fiber terminal may be coupled to an optical I/O of the PLC. In embodiments the PLC includes a light modulator, photodetector and coupling regions supporting the optical I/O. Spin-on electro-optic polymer (EOP) may be utilized for the modulator while a photodefinable material is employed for a mode expander in the coupling region.

An optical touchscreen assembly may employ a photonic chip packaged with a chip surface at an angle inclined between horizontal and vertical orientations. An inclined paddle sawn flat no-leads (IPSFN) package may be affixed to a cover glass surface along a perimeter of a display. IPSFN packages may incorporate a photo-emitter chip and a photo-detector chip that may be inclined for a desired angle of incidence relative to the cover glass. A CMOS integrated optical transceiver package may include inclined photonic chips and a non-inclined CMOS chip having at least one of a photo-emitter driver, or a photo-detector TIA and/or ADC. A chip package lead frame may include cantilevered paddle tabs amenable to controlled deflection during package assembly. An inclined packaging assembly method may include attaching a chip to a lead frame paddle and form pressing the lead frame to incline the chip to a desired angle before encapsulation.

Photonic components are placed on the processor package to bring the optical signal close to the processor die. The processor package includes a substrate to which the processor die is coupled, and which allows the processor die to connect to a printed circuit board. The processor package also includes transceiver logic, electrical-optical conversion circuits, and an optical coupler. The electrical-optical conversion circuits can include laser(s), modulator(s), and photodetector(s) to transmit and receive and optical signal. The coupler interfaces to a fiber that extends off the processor package. Multiple fibers can be brought to the processor package allowing for a scalable high-speed, high-bandwidth interconnection to the processor.

Systems and methods may couple on-chip optical circuits to external fibers. An SOI waveguide structure may include mirror structures and tapered waveguides to optically couple optical circuits to fibers in a vertically oriented external connector. The mirror structure(s) may be angularly disposed at the ends of the silicon waveguide structure. An oxide layer may cover a buried oxide layer and the silicon waveguide structure. The tapered waveguide(s) may have a narrow end and a wide end. The narrow end of the tapered waveguide(s) may be disposed above the mirror structures. The tapered waveguide(s) may extend through the oxide layer from the narrow end in a direction perpendicular to the silicon waveguide structure. An external connector may fit over the tapered waveguide(s) and uses a fiber array traveling through a connector body to optically couple to the external fiber.

摘要:
Embodiments of the invention describe a multi-segment optical waveguide that enables an optical modulator to be low-power and athermal by decreasing the device length needed for a given waveguide length. Embodiments of the invention describe an optical waveguide that is folded onto itself, and thus includes at least two sections. Thus, embodiments of the invention may decrease the device size of a modulator by at least around a factor of two if the device is folded twofold (device size may be further reduced if the modulator is folded threefold, four-fold, five-fold, etc.).Embodiments of the invention further enable the electrode length required to create the desired electro-optic effect for the multi-segment optical waveguide to be reduced. In embodiments of the invention, certain electrodes may be “shared” amongst the different segments of the waveguide, thereby reducing the power requirement and capacitance of a device having a waveguide of a given length.
