Optoscribe is sampling optical fibre to silicon photonics couplers. Branded OptoCplrLT, the devices are monolithic curved glass mirrors which turn light to direct it to or from silicon-photonic grating couplers (see diagrams). “This prevents the need for bend-tolerant fibre solutions which have some significant limitations in size and profile,” according to the company. Made using …
