Demonstration of an assembly consisting of an angled DFB laser array coupled to a single-mode fiber array (FA) through dedicated FaML both on the laser and the fiber facets.

Caption

(a) Artist's view of a single connection of the assembly that shows minimal back-reflection. (b) Top-view image of the assembly. Inset (i) shows an SEM picture of the FaML assembly on the laser side, including mechanical support structures that hold the prism in place.
