Abstract
Methods and systems for an all-optical wafer acceptance test may include an optical transceiver on a chip, the optical transceiver comprising first, second, and third grating couplers, an interferometer comprising first and second phase modulators, a splitter, and a plurality of photodiodes. A first input optical signal may be received in the chip via the first grating coupler, where the first input optical signal may be coupled to the interferometer. An output optical signal may be coupled out of the chip via the second grating coupler for a first measurement of the interferometer. A second input optical signal may be coupled to a third grating coupler and a portion of the second input optical signal may be communicated to each of the plurality of photodiodes via the splitter. A voltage may be generated using the photodiodes based on the second input signal that may bias the first phase modulator.
