Abstract:
A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) chip comprising an array of modulated sources, each providing a modulated signal output at a channel wavelength different from the channel wavelength of other modulated sources and a wavelength selective combiner having an input optically coupled to received all the signal outputs from the modulated sources and provide a combined output signal on an output waveguide from the chip. The modulated sources, combiner and output waveguide are all integrated on the same chip.
Abstract:
A package is described. In one embodiment, the package includes multiple optical elements and multiple flexures, with at least one optical element attached to each flexure. The optical elements may be in alignment with each other. In an alternative embodiment, multiple optical elements are attached to a single flexure.
Abstract:
A flexure and package including the same are provided. In one embodiment, the flexure is coupled to a second optical element and a substrate to maintain the second optical element in alignment with a first optical element. The flexure comprises a body, a pair of front and back legs. The attachment of the rear legs to the substrate causes the flexure to move from a first flexure position to a second flexure position, the distance between the first flexure position and the second flexure position equaling an offset distance. A specified length of the body is chosen such that the offset distance causes a second offset distance of the second optical component held by the flexure, and this second offset distance is within a specified range. The second offset distance is equal to the difference between a primary second optical component position and a secondary second optical component position.

Abstract:
A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) chip with a plurality of electro-optic components formed on a major surface of the chip and a submount that includes a substrate that extends over the major surface of the chip forming an air gap between the substrate and the major surface, the substrate to support electrical leads for electrical connection to some of the electro-optic components on the chip major surface.
Abstract:
A package for optical components and a method for making the package are disclosed. The package comprises a quasi-planar substrate having a positioning floor, a platform and an optional ring frame of precisely determined height. Optical components picked and placed on a substrate floor, a raised platform and frame. A flexure assembly allows fine positioning of components requiring critical optical alignment.
