Patent attributes
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including a photonic integrated circuit package, including a photonic integrated circuit chip, including multiple electrodes configured to receive the electrical signal, where at least one characteristics of a segment of the traveling wave active optical element is changed based on the electrical signal received by a corresponding electrode of the multiple electrodes; a ground electrode; and multiple bond contacts; and an interposer bonded to at least a portion of the photonic integrated circuit chip, the interposer including a conductive trace formed on a surface of the interposer, the conductive trace electrically coupled to a source of the electrical signal; a ground trace; and multiple conductive vias electrically coupled to the conductive trace, where each conductive via of the multiple conductive vias is bonded with a respective bond contact of the multiple bond contacts of the photonic integrated circuit chip.
