Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
According to an example, an apparatus for use in optoelectronics includes a bottom transparent layer, a top transparent layer having a top surface, a lens sandwiched between the bottom transparent layer and the top transparent layer, and a first alignment element attached to the top surface of the top transparent layer, wherein the first alignment element is offset with respect to the lens and is to mate with a mating alignment element on an optical transmission medium.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for use in optoelectronics, said apparatus comprising: a bottom transparent layer; a top transparent layer having a top surface; a lens sandwiched between the bottom transparent layer and the top transparent layer, wherein the lens is to direct a light beam through a section of the top transparent layer; and a first alignment element attached to the top surface of the top transparent layer, wherein the first alignment element is positioned…
