ABSTRACT:
An optical interconnect structure, formed on a substrate, includes optical interconnects each of which includes a core member constructed of a material having a first predetermined index of refraction. A cladding layer surrounds each core member. The cladding layer is formed of a material having a second predetermined index of refraction, the magnitude of which is less than the first predetermined index of refraction. At least one optical port exposes at least a portion of the core member of at least one optical interconnect. The optical port may be located on a top portion of an optical interconnect or at one or both ends of an optical interconnect.
