Abstract:
1. An optoelectronic assembly for coupling an optical conductor to a light emitting surface of an optoelectronic semiconductor device comprising: a multilayer substrate comprising a cavity adapted to receive and electrically connect said optoelectronic semiconductor device to said multilayer substrate, and a first set of patterned layers, and wherein said first set of patterned layers comprise at least one metal layer, at least one dielectric layer and a plurality of passive electrical components embedded within said patterned layers and being connected to each other and to said metal layer thereby forming an electrical network; a groove leading to said cavity and being adapted to receive and optically connect said optical conductor to said light emitting surface of said optoelectronic semiconductor device; and wherein said optoelectronic semiconductor device and said optical conductor are precisely positioned within said cavity and said groove, respectively, so that light emitted from said light emitting surface of said optoelectronic semiconductor device couples to an optical surface of said optical conductor.
