Abstract
Technologies for optical coupling to photonic integrated circuit (PIC) dies are disclosed. In one illustrative embodiment, a PIC die has one or more waveguides and one or more vertical couplers to reflect light from the waveguides through a surface of the PIC die. An optical connector interface is positioned on the surface of the PIC die with high precision. The optical connector interface includes one or more lenses to collimate light from the one or more waveguides. An optical connector is plugged into the optical connector interface. The optical connector includes one or more lenses to focus the collimated light to one or more optical fibers. As the optical connector is coupling to collimated light, it does not need to be positioned with high precision.
