Abstract
System and methods for aligning optical elements to form adiabatic couplings are disclosed. An alignment device includes a common platform and a plurality of electrically-controlled mounts affixed to the common platform. Individual fibers of a first set of fibers that are to be aligned with a second set of fibers are coupled into respective ones of the plurality of electrically-controlled mounts. The platform as a whole is positioned in 3D space to align the first set of fibers with the second set of fibers, within a threshold level of alignment. Then, individual ones of the electrically-controlled mounts are adjusted to further align respective fibers of the first set of fibers with a corresponding fiber of the second set. In some embodiments, scattered light and/or signal strength are used as feedback measurements to guide the alignment process.
