Planar lightwave circuit module and method for manufacturing the same

摘要

A planar lightwave circuit module includes a plate provided on a substrate. An end array surface of an optical fiber array is connected to an end substrate surface of the substrate and an end plate surface of the plate such that at least one optical fiber of the optical fiber array is connected to at least one optical waveguide formed on an upper substrate surface of the substrate and such that a bottom substrate surface of the substrate and a bottom array surface of the optical fiber array are substantially on a first plane and/or an upper plate surface of the plate and an upper array surface of the optical fiber array are substantially on a second plane.
