Abstract:
A glass substrate as a platform for a high speed optical interconnect is disclosed. An optical engine is mounted on the top surface and a polymer waveguide on the bottom surface of the glass substrate. A metal plate can be included for mechanical support. The optical engine includes conductive lines patterned into the glass and active optical devices bonded with the conductive lines. An anisotropic conductive film (ACF) connects the optical engine with a printed circuit board. The waveguide, attached parallel to the bottom surface of the glass substrate, includes a core structure, a 45 degree tapered portion at one end of the core structure, used as a light reflector. An optical fiber connector is attached to the far end of the polymer waveguide. The optical path is formed from the active optical device on the top surface, through the glass substrate and the polymer waveguide, to the optical fiber connector on the bottom surface of the glass substrate.

Claim (Index 2):
The optical interconnect apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the polymer waveguides each further comprises a second core structure on the 45 degree tapered portion, and wherein the second core structure is perpendicular to the first core structure.
