ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an optical transmitter and/or receiver assembly comprising at least one transmitter component (2) and/or at least one receiver component (3, 4), in addition to a planar optical circuit (5) with at least one integrated waveguide (51). According to the invention, light from the transmitter element (1) is coupled into a waveguide (51) of the planar optical circuit (5) and/or light from the waveguide (51) of the planar optical circuit (5) is uncoupled and guided onto the receiver component (3, 4). The assembly is provided with a lens (14, 15) for optically coupling the waveguide(s) (51) of the planar optical circuit (5) to a fiber-optic that can be fixed to the transmitter and/or receiver assembly (1), said lens (14, 15) being positioned on the planar optical circuit (5).
