OverviewCT1000-SiPh is a silicon optical chip testing equipment engineered for high-volume industrial production. The system combines a dedicated testing section and a loading/unloading section to enable fast, accurate coupling and measurement of fiber arrays (FA) to silicon optical chips. It integrates a high-resolution vision system, a high-precision coupling mechanism and dynamic closed-loop force control to maintain measurement consistency and throughput.
Key features- High-resolution vision system (50 nm visual resolution)
- High-precision coupling mechanism for FA-to-chip alignment
- Dynamic closed-loop force control for fast, repeatable coupling
- Highly compatible design supporting multiple chip types and interfaces
- Automated basket loading/unloading for production throughput
Advantages- Independent air-bearing damping on the test section to isolate external and load/unload vibrations
- Basket-style automated handling suitable for volume production
- End-pressure feedback for accurate process control and monitoring
- Support for hot-air film expansion and related processes
