    摘要: Aspects described herein include a method including arranging a laser die on a substrate. The laser die has multiple channels that are arranged with a first planar arrangement proximate to a facet of the laser die. The substrate is arranged on a housing component. The method further includes aligning a single lens to the facet, and aligning a multicore optical fiber to the laser die through the single lens. The multicore optical fiber has a plurality of optical cores that are arranged with a second planar arrangement. Aligning the multicore optical fiber to the laser die includes attaching the multicore optical fiber to the housing component and rotationally aligning the multicore optical fiber to align the second planar arrangement with the first planar arrangement.

    摘要: The optical devices described herein include a lens arrangement for coupling light between light sources and optical fibers with a reduced size compared to the use of optical waveguides, while also allowing for the use of power sensitive optical components, such as components with lower power density configurations. The lens arrangements include a collimating lens, a focusing lens, and at least one optical component positioned between the collimating lens and the focusing lens.

    摘要: An apparatus includes a substrate, an integrated circuit positioned on the substrate, and a load plate positioned on the integrated circuit such that the load plate is arranged to absorb heat from the integrated circuit. The load plate includes a body and an extender. The body includes an upper surface and a bottom surface. The bottom surface contacts the integrated circuit such that the bottom surface is between the integrated circuit and the upper surface. A portion of the body extends beyond the integrated circuit. The extender is coupled to the portion of the body such that the extender extends from the bottom surface to define a cavity between the extender and the integrated circuit. The extender defines an aperture aligned with the integrated circuit.

    摘要: An optical coupler and a method performed by the optical coupler are described. The optical coupler includes an interlayer dielectric, a waveguide disposed within the interlayer dielectric, and an epoxy disposed on the interlayer dielectric and in the first cavity such that the epoxy defines an upper surface and a bottom surface. The interlayer dielectric includes a first surface and a second surface coupled to the first surface. The first surface and the second surface define a first cavity in the interlayer dielectric. The waveguide emits an optical signal through the first surface. The bottom surface is positioned between the interlayer dielectric and the upper surface. The epoxy directs the optical signal from the first surface to the second surface. The second surface and the epoxy direct a first portion of the optical signal through the upper surface.

    摘要: Aspects described herein include a method of fabricating an optical component, the optical component, and a method of operating the optical component. A method includes electrically coupling a first laser channel and a second laser channel of a laser die to different electrical leads and testing (i) a first optical coupling of the first laser channel and a second optical coupling of the second laser channel or (ii) a first spectral performance of the first laser channel and a second spectral performance of the second laser channel. The method also includes optically aligning an optical fiber with the first laser channel and designating the second laser channel as a heater element for the first laser channel based at least in part on (i) the first optical coupling being greater than the second optical coupling or (ii) the first spectral performance relative to the second spectral performance
