Embodiments include a method for interconnecting components of an optical circuit. The method includes arranging the components on a support layer and embedding them within a material, such that portions of the material that is between the components contact the support layer. The obtained components are positioned with a certain inaccuracy with respect to ideal nominal positions thereof. Next, the support layer is removed to reveal one side of the components, on which side the components are level with said portions of said material. Positions of the components are identified and a set of optical polymer waveguides are adaptively fabricated, on the one side, so as for each of the fabricated polymer waveguides to optically connect subsets of two or more of the components, according to the identified positions of the components. The present invention is further directed to related optical circuits or electro-optical circuits of interconnected components.
