ABSTRACT:
A method for making a micro optical device includes providing an optical element, providing a glass perform, providing a substrate with a precision formed feature designed to passively position the optical element relative to the substrate, and bonding the optical element to the substrate using the glass perform. The optical element is passively located in a predefined relationship with the substrate, and the glass perform has a shape prior to contacting the substrate that is maintained before the bonding.
