Abstract: Methods of selectively transferring integrated circuit (IC) components between substrates, and devices and systems formed using the same, are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a first substrate with a release layer and a layer of IC components over the release layer is received, and a second substrate with one or more adhesive areas is received. The layer of IC components may include one or more waveguides, ring resonators, drivers, photodetectors, transimpedance amplifiers, and/or electronic integrated circuits. The first substrate is partially bonded to the second substrate, such that a subset of IC components on the first substrate are bonded to the adhesive areas on the second substrate. The first substrate is then separated from the second substrate, and the subset of IC components bonded to the second substrate are separated from the first substrate and remain on the second substrate.

Abstract: A system enables optical communication with direct conversion of the electrical signal into an optical signal with an array of optical sources. The use of the array of optical sources can eliminate the need for a large serializer/deserializer (SERDES). With an array of optical sources, the optical communication can occur at lower power and lower frequency per optical source, with multiple parallel optical sources combining to provide a signal.
