Abstract

A mechanical sub-assembly is presented enabling fine positioning and fixation of a lensed 4-fibre array to an integrated two-state AWG-based multiwavelength laser chip. The device operates as an all optical memory element used in optical packet switching and signal processing. The alignment accuracy between fibre array and chip is in the sub-micron range and possible in 4 degrees of freedom. The design minimizes postweld-shifts and enables re-positioning of the fibre array after the first fixation step. The mechanical sub-assembly is mounted in a package with a clamp method to reduce internal stress in the sub-assembly. The chip temperature is varied from 10 *C to 30 *C and stable coupling efficiency is measured.
