A structure and method for the wafer level testing of interposer-based photonic integrated circuits is described that includes the formation of an upturned mirror structure and the method of utilizing the interposer-based mirror structure for electrical and optical testing of optoelectrical circuits that include emitting components such as lasers, detecting components such as photodetectors, and both emitting and detecting components. Electrical activation of the optoelectrical emitting or sending devices and the subsequent detection and measurement of the optical signals in detecting or receiving devices provides information on the operability or functionality of the PIC on the die at the wafer level, prior to die separation or singulation, using the electrical and optical components of the PIC circuit.

Embodiments of alignment structures are disclosed that enable the alignment of a fiber attach unit (FAU) and the optical fibers contained therein to optical components on optical interposers or substrates on which photonic integrated circuits (PICs) are formed. Alignment of the optical fibers is enabled without the requirement for powering of the active optoelectrical devices in the PIC, but rather use an external testing apparatus to provide one or more optical signals to facilitate alignment. Methods for alignment using embodiments of the alignment structure is also disclosed.
