Submount for a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) chip

摘要

A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) chip with a plurality of electro-optic components formed on a major surface of the chip and a submount that includes a substrate that extends over the major surface of the chip forming an air gap between the substrate and the major surface, the substrate to support electrical leads for electrical connection to some of the electro-optic components on the chip major surface.
