| 20120082413 | AN OPTICAL CONNECTION SYSTEM - The present disclosure provides an optical connection system which comprises optical components that include a plurality of vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) for emitting modulated light in response to applied electrical signals and a plurality of receivers for receiving the emitted light. The optical components are arranged in at least two monolithically integrated modules each comprising at least two of the optical components. The optical connection system further comprises at least one light guiding component for guiding the light between the VCSELs and the receivers. The optical connection system also comprises coupling elements for coupling the at least one light guiding component to the monolithically integrated modules such that in use light is transmitted between modules via the at least one light guiding component. | 04-05-2012 |
| 20100014806 | OPTICAL CONNECTION COMPONENT - The present invention provides an optical connection component which comprises a solid state laser component for emitting a modulated beam of light in response to an applied electrical signal. The optical connection component also comprises an optical lens positioned relative to the solid state laser component at a predetermined position in which the optical lens reduces divergence of the emitted beam of light. The optical lens is formed at the predetermined position in a manner such that the optical lens is immobile relative to the solid state laser component. The optical connection component further comprises an optical waveguide having a core for guiding the light. The optical waveguide has first and second end-portions. The first end-portion is positioned for coupling the modulated light from the optical lens into the core. In addition, the optical connection component comprises a receiver for receiving the modulated light from the second end-portion of the optical waveguide and arranged for converting the modulated light into a corresponding electrical signal. | 01-21-2010 |
