Abstract
A system includes a surface coupled edge emitting laser that includes a core waveguide, a fan out region optically coupled to the core waveguide in a same layer of the surface coupled edge emitting laser as the core waveguide; and a first surface grating formed in the fan out region; and a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) that includes an optical waveguide and a second surface grating formed in an upper layer of the PIC, wherein the second surface grating is in optical alignment with the first surface grating.
