    摘要: Modification of the topology of selected regions of individual VCSEL devices during fabrication is utilized to provide an array output beam with specific characteristics (e.g., “uniform” output power across the array). These physical features include at least the width of the metal aperture, the width of the oxide aperture, and/or the geometry of the contact ring structure on the top of the VCSEL device. The modifications may also function to adjust the numerical apertures (NAs) of the devices, the beam waist, wallplug efficiency, and the like.

    摘要: A liquid crystal on silicon (LCOS) device includes a silicon substrate and a pair of electrodes including an upper and a lower electrode. The lower electrode is mounted to the silicon substrate and includes a two dimensional array of pixels extending in both a first and second dimension. LCOS device also includes a liquid crystal layer disposed between the upper and lower electrodes and configured to be driveable into a plurality of electrical states by drive signals provided to the pixels of the lower electrode. The pixels are rectangular in profile having longer sides in the first dimension than in the second dimension. Further, the two dimensional array includes a pixel pitch that is greater in the first dimension than in the second dimension.

    摘要: An optical communication device may include a driver component, arranged to achieve a driving voltage, and a modulator component, including a laser or arranged to receive light from a laser. The modulator component may be arranged to achieve a modulated light signal modulated based on the driving voltage. The device may include a transmission line arranged to transfer the driving voltage between the driver component and the modulator component. The transmission line may not impedance matched to the driver component, the transmission line may have an impedance which is at least 20% lower than an output impedance of the driver component, and the transmission line may be impedance matched with respect to signal reflections to the modulator component.

    摘要: A modular assembly for opto-electronic systems has a substrate on which various photonic integrated circuit (PIC) chips and electronic integrated circuit (EIC) chips are mounted. One or more waveguide (WG) chips mounted on the substrate align the optical communication between the PIC chips and fiber blocks for optical fibers. Preconfigured electrical connections in the substrate allow the PIC and EIC chips to communicate with one another and to communicate with solder bumps on the substrate for integration of the modular assembly with other electronic components.

    摘要: A vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) may include an active region (e.g., one or more quantum wells) and a chirped pattern reflector. The active region may be configured to be electrically pumped such that the active region generates light having a fundamental mode and a higher order mode. The chirped pattern reflector may include a first portion presenting to the active region as a first portion of an effective mirror having a concave shape and a second portion presenting to the active region as a second portion of the effective mirror having a convex shape.
