Optical integrated circuits are disclosed having a gap (18) traversing the lens or the waveguide grating and an actuator (12) that controllably positions the optical integrated circuit on each side of the gap (18). As a result, the thermal sensitivity of the optical integrated circuits, for example, arrayed waveguide gratings, is mitigated. Also disclosed are methods for fabricating optical integrated circuits employing the gap (18) and the actuator (12).
