Abstract
A method of forming a self-aligned waveguide is provided. The method includes forming a first alignment feature on a packaged semiconductor device and a second alignment feature on a waveguide structure. A solder material is applied to the first alignment feature or the second alignment feature. The waveguide structure is placed onto the packaged semiconductor device such that the second alignment feature overlaps the first alignment feature. The solder material is reflowed to cause the waveguide structure to align with the packaged semiconductor device.
