我们提出了基于集成玻璃光纤的多通道光学互连，具有用于印刷电路板的无源对准面内和90°面外耦合器。面外耦合器具有微光学器件、机械对准结构和卡扣配合系统，以将复杂的耦合器从几个简单的自对准部件中组装出来。此外，我们提出了一个光学印刷电路板上的发送器和接收器的四个通道，使用4×10 Gbit/s的发送器和接收器芯片的电子电路。
We present multi channel optical interconnects, based on integrated glass fibers, with passively aligned in-plane and 90° out-of-plane couplers for printed circuit boards. The out-of-plane coupler features micro optics, mechanical alignment structures, and a snap-fit system to assemble the complex coupler out of several simple, self aligning parts. Further we present an optical printed circuit board for on-board transmitter and receiver electronics for four channels using 4×10 Gbit/s transmitter and receiver chips.
