Abstract:
An optical transceiver can include a transmitter having a photonic integrated circuit, and a receiver having a current-to-voltage converter and a photodetector in electrical communication with the current-to-voltage converter and separate from the photonic integrated circuit. Each of the transmitter and the receiver can include an interconnect member that includes first and second optical paths for the propagation of optical transmit signals and optical receive signals, respectively. The interconnect members of the transmitter and receiver can further define electrical paths that are configured to connect to an underlying substrate at one end, and the transmitter and receiver, respectively. The interconnect members can be separate from each other or can define a single monolithic interconnect member.

Claim (Index 137):
An optical assembly comprising:\n an optically transparent interconnect member that defines a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface along a transverse direction; an optical engine mounted to the first surface; an optical waveguide coupler mounted to the first surface at a location spaced from the optical engine along a direction angularly offset with respect to the transverse direction; and a reflective surface disposed at a location spaced from the first surface along the transverse direction, wherein the interconnect member is configured to receive an optical signal at the first surface, and conduct the optical signal along a first path to the reflective surface, such that the reflective surface reflects the optical signal to the first surface along a second path different from the first path.
