Abstract
Apparatuses, systems, and methods are provided for waveguide alignment. An example optical module includes a substrate, one or more primary waveguides supported by the substrate, and an optoelectronic component supported by the substrate and in optical communication with the one or more primary waveguides. The optoelectronic component uses optical signals having a first wavelength. The optical module further includes a signal reflection component configured to selectively reflect optical signals having a second wavelength so as to determine an alignment of the one or more primary waveguides. In some instances the one or more primary waveguides define the signal reflection component(s). In other instances, one or more secondary waveguides are supported by the substrate and define the signal reflection component(s).
