Abstract
A high speed interface for optoelectronic devices is disclosed that includes a housing adapted to receive a distal end of a fiber having a slanted end face. The end face of the fiber is optically coupled to an optoelectronic device mounted in the housing. The fiber cladding between the optoelectronic device and the fiber core may be polished or etched to reduce the thickness of the cladding to reduce the separation distance between the optoelectronic device and the slanted end face of the fiber. The reduced separation distance improves the optical coupling efficiency between the end face of the fiber and the optoelectronic device.
