  • TECHNIQUES FOR LASER ALIGNMENT IN PHOTONIC INTEGRATED CIRCUITS
    Publication number: 20230261432
    Abstract: Techniques for efficient alignment of a semiconductor laser in a Photonic Integrated Circuit (PIC) are disclosed. In some embodiments, a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) may include a semiconductor laser that includes a laser mating surface, and a substrate that includes a substrate mating surface. A shape of the laser mating surface and a shape of the substrate mating surface may be configured to align the semiconductor laser with the substrate in three dimensions.
