Abstract
There is provided an optical system comprising a photonic integrated circuit which is integrated on a platform and an element having a first surface being attached to the platform. The element has a groove in the first surface, and the groove is filled with a medium having a refractive index which is different from that of the element. The groove has a surface with a normal that forms an angle with respect to a predetermined light direction, thereby allowing changing a direction of light which is incident on the platform along the predetermined light direction. The element and the medium filling the groove are transparent for a wavelength range of the light which is incident on the platform.
