Photonic-plug

Scalable fiber connectivity to photonic chips

• Scalable single-mode fiber connectivity to silicon photonic chips

• Self-aligning optics: Patented wafer level optics for unprecedented fiber-chip assembly tolerances

• Photonic-plug takes advantage from wafer level processes for accurate placement of optical elements thus shifts accuracy requirements from assembly to wafer manufacturing domain

• PhotonicBump: Wafer level optical elements for reliable and high yield silicon photonics manufacturing, testing and packaging

• Wide-band surface coupling: Unique surface coupling geometry that avoids complicated side-coupling geometries

• Supports assembly of large number of fibers
