    Abstract: An integrated optical component comprising at least one waveguide integrated into a substrate and connected to the end of an optical fiber which is attached to the substrate at said fiber end and in an region separated from said fiber end by a first drop of adhesive and a second drop of adhesive, respectively. The adhesive product which constitutes the first drop has a glass transition temperature located in a predetermined operating temperature range of the component, while the adhesive product which constitutes the second drop has a glass transition temperature located generally above this operating temperature range, thereby assuring the absorption of differential expansions in such a way as to maintain the optical continuity of the fiber/waveguide attachment and the mechanical strength of the fiber/substrate attachment.

    Abstract: An integrated optical component comprising at least one waveguide integrated into a substrate (1) and connected to the end of an optical fiber (2) which is attached to the substrate at said fiber end and in an region separated from said fiber end by a first drop (7) of adhesive and a second drop (8) of adhesive, respectively. The adhesive product which constitutes the first drop has a glass transition temperature located in a predetermined operating temperature range of the component, while the adhesive product which constitutes the second drop has a glass transition temperature located generally above this operating temperature range, thereby assuring the absorption of differential expansions in such a way as to maintain the optical continuity of the fiber/waveguide attachment and the mechanical strength of the fiber/substrate attachment.

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing and testing integrated optical composites in which fiber pigtails are aligned with and attached to the optical output ports of a plurality of integrated optical components on a wafer, prior to separation into individual components. The multiple pigtails are arranged at the ends opposite the wafer, to facilitate optical connections during active alignment and measurement testing.

    Abstract: An optical waveguide component, with a pigtail attached thereto, is disclosed in which a portion of a surface of the component is bevelled and a portion of the endface of the pigtail is bevelled. The bevelled portion of the pigtail endface is oriented to be substantially parallel to the bevelled portion of the component surface or is oriented to be open with respect to the component surface. The pigtail endface can be continuously bevelled to form a substantially conical shape on the pigtail endface, wherein the substantially conical shape is offset from the optical axis of the pigtail.
