摘要:
A first waveguide holding member has a first transverse surface region and a first optical waveguide having an end terminating at the first transverse surface region. A second waveguide holding member has a second transverse surface region which confronts the first transverse surface region of the first waveguide holding member and a second optical waveguide having an end terminating at the second transverse surface region. A guide member is operatively coupled to the first and second waveguide holding members and guides the first waveguide holding member in a transverse direction relative to the second waveguide holding member so as to selectively optically couple and decouple the ends of the first and second optical waveguides.

An optical device is disclosed which includes a single-mode waveguide (700) which supports a first optical mode in a first region and a second optical mode in a second region. The waveguide includes a guiding layer (703) having at least one wing (750) extended outwardly from the guiding layer (703). The guiding layer (703) may desirably have a rib waveguide (706, 707) cross sectional shape at the wings. The wings (750) decrease in width along the length of the guiding layer to convert a rib waveguide mode at the wings to a channel waveguide mode.

An optical assembly which allows for passive alignment of the various elements is described. A substrate with a cut out portion and an upper surface is utilized as a mount for an optical array and an imaging assembly. The optical array, which preferably includes a plurality of optical fibers is positioned on V-grooves located on the upper surface. The imaging assembly, which preferably includes a plurality of lenses, such as GRIN lenses, is lowered at least partially into the cut-out portion. The optical fibers are optically coupled with said lenses. A waveguide, having a plurality of waveguide cores within a cladding, may further be optically coupled with the lenses, or alternatively, directly to the optical fibers. An integrated optic chip may also be affixed to the substrate or mounted on the substrate.

An optical device package includes a substrate having an upper surface, a distal end, a proximal end, and distal and proximal longitudinally extending notches co-linearly aligned with each other. A structure is mounted to the substrate and has at least one recessed portion. The structure can be a lid or a frame to which a lid is bonded. An optical fiber is positioned within at least one of the proximal longitudinally extending notch and the distal longitudinally extending notch and within the recessed portion of the structure mounted to the substrate. The optical device package can also include conductive legs extending upwardly from bonding pads on the upper surface of the substrate to facilitate flip mounting of the optical device package onto a circuit board or other such platform.

An optical device package includes a substrate; an optical fiber, a frame, and optionally a lid and an optical semiconductor component. The upper surface of the frame includes conductive visa extending vertically to solder balls on its upper surface. Conductive traces along the surface of the substrate provide electrical communication between the optical semiconductor component and the frame. The optical device package is adapted for flip-chip type mounting to a circuit board or other mounting surface.
摘要:
The present invention provides an optical switch. The switch includes a substrate and a first waveguide holding member. The switch also includes a second waveguide holding member disposed over the substrate and movable relative to the first waveguide holding member to provide a switching function. A movement guiding member is provided for guiding the movement of the second waveguide holding member. A registration element is disposed at the movement guiding member for positioning the second waveguide holding member at a selected location relative to the first waveguide holding member. The selected location is one that provides alignment between a selected waveguide of the first waveguide holding member and a selected waveguide of the second waveguide holding member.
