Abstract
The optic coupling system links a fiber-optics waveguide with two optoelectronic components. The components are disposed on a substrate with an interposed beam-splitting layer. The light incidence or light emission surface of the first optoelectronic element is disposed perpendicular to the substrate. The coupling system is either a bi-directional transmitter and receiver module or a mono-directional transmitter or receiver module. To this end, the light incidence or light emersion surface of the second optoelectronic element is disposed in parallel to the substrate and the beam-splitting layer is disposed on a surface that is arranged above the second optoelectronic element at an angle of approximately 45° with respect to the substrate.
