    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure describe wafer-level die testing devices having a base with a planar X-Y surface, a plurality of thermal actuators situated on the surface, wherein one or more of the plurality of thermal actuators is movable in relation to the base in at least one of the X or the Y directions, and one or more adjustable links, wherein each adjustable link is to adjust a relative position between an individual thermal actuator of the plurality of thermal actuators and one or more other thermal actuators of the plurality of thermal actuators in one or more of the X or the Y directions. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: In an optical circuit, a substrate can define a cavity that extends into a substrate front surface. A sidewall of the cavity can include a substrate optical port. An optical path can extend through the substrate from a connector optical port to the substrate optical port. A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) can attach to the substrate. A PIC front surface can include a plurality of electrical connections. A PIC edge surface can extend around at least a portion of a perimeter of the PIC between the PIC front surface and a PIC back surface. A PIC optical port can be disposed on the PIC edge surface and can accept or emit an optical beam along a PIC optical axis. The PIC optical axis can be aligned with the substrate optical port when the PIC is attached to the substrate.

    Abstract: In an optical circuit, a substrate can have a substrate top surface, a substrate bottom surface, and a substrate edge surface that extends around at least a portion of a perimeter of the substrate. A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) can be attached to the substrate. The PIC can have a PIC optical port that is configured to accept or emit an optical beam along a PIC optical axis. A lens can be located at the substrate edge surface. The substrate can include an optical path that extends through the substrate from a first substrate optical port that is aligned with the PIC optical axis to a second substrate optical port that faces the lens, such that an optical beam emergent from the PIC optical port can traverse the optical path and pass through the lens to emerge substantially parallel to the substrate top surface.
