ABSTRACT:
An optical interconnect structure, formed on a substrate, optically interconnects optoelectronic transmitting and receiving devices. The optical interconnect structure includes optical interconnects each of which includes a core member constructed of a material having a first predetermined index of refraction. The ends of the core members are chemically bonded either to an optoelectronic device or a core member of another optical interconnect. A cladding layer surrounds each core member. Each end of a cladding layer proximate to an optoelectronic device is chemically bonded to that device. The cladding layer is formed of a material having a second predetermined index of refraction, the magnitude of which is less than the magnitude of the first predetermined index of refraction.
