    摘要: Method of fabricating a semiconductor die with a microlens associated therewith. More particularly, a method for fabricating a vertical channel guide optical via through a silicon substrate wherein the optical via can contain lens elements, a discrete index gradient guiding pillar and other embodiments. Also disclosed are means for transferring, coupling and or focusing light from an electronic-optical device on the top of a semiconductor substrate through the substrate to a waveguiding medium below the substrate. The high alignment accuracies afforded by standard semiconductor fabrication processes are exploited so as to obviate the need for active alignment of the optical coupling or light guiding elements.

    摘要: A structure that possesses the combined properties of carrying signals through the provision of a series of electrical conductors, and by optical signals through the intermediary of a series of optical waveguides. This imparts a particular advantage thereto for the fabrication of optical data links, providing a convenient, compact method of interconnecting electrical paths to transducer chips and to waveguide structures. This approach solves the problem of connecting polymer waveguides to VCSEL (Vertical-Cavity-Surface-Emitting Laser) arrays, thereby avoiding the problem of damaging fragile wire bonds. A method is also provided which utilizes the foregoing structure.

    摘要: An apparatus for optical communication is provided. The apparatus includes a first waveguide formed on a first surface and a second waveguide formed on a second surface. The first and second surfaces are bonded together to form an air gap between the first and second surfaces and diffraction gratings of the first and second waveguides are facing each other. A third waveguide is formed on a third surface, and the third surface is bonded to the second surface so an air gap exists between the third and second surface and diffraction gratings of the third and second wave guides face each other. The light beam passes from the second wave guide across the air gap and into the third waveguide.
