Abstract:
Methods and systems for a free space CWDM MUX/DEMUX for integration with a grating coupler based silicon platform may include an optical assembly coupled to a photonic chip. The optical assembly includes a lens array on the top surface of the chip, an angled mirror, a plurality of transparent spacers, and a plurality of thin film filters. The optical assembly may receive an input optical signal comprising a plurality of optical signals at different wavelengths via an optical fiber coupled to the optical assembly, communicate the plurality of optical signals through a first of the plurality of transparent spacers, pass a first of the plurality of optical signals through a corresponding one of the plurality of thin film filters while reflecting others of the plurality of optical signals back into the first of the plurality of transparent spacers, and reflect the others of the plurality of signals towards a second of the plurality of thin film filters.

Claim (Index 23):
The system according to  claim 19 , wherein the optical assembly comprises a second lens array on the top surface of the photonic chip, a second angled mirror, a second plurality of transparent spacers, and a second plurality of thin film filters.
