Periscope optical assembly

Abstract:

The present disclosure provides for periscope optical assemblies within interposers that include a bulk material having a first side and a second side opposite to the first side; a first optic defined in the bulk material at a first height in the bulk material along an axis extending between the first second sides; a second optic defined in the bulk material at a second height in the bulk material, different than the first height, along the axis; a first waveguide defined in the bulk material, extending from the first side to the first optic; a second waveguide defined in the bulk material, extending from the second optic to the second side; and a third waveguide defined in the bulk material, extending from the first optic to the second optic.
