Abstract

The invention relates to a photonic component (10) having a photonically integrated chip (1) and a fibre mounting (5), wherein the fibre mounting (5) has: at least one groove (52), into which an optical fibre (30) is placed, and at least one mirror surface (52), which reflects radiation (S) from the fibre (30) in the direction of the photonically integrated chip (1). According to the invention a chip stack (20) comprising at least two chips is arranged between the photonically integrated chip (1) and the fibre mounting (5), the chip stack (20) has at least two through holes (21) and in each case a guide pin (40), which positions the chip stack (20) and the fibre mounting (5) relative to one another, passes through the at least two through holes (21) of the chip stack (20).
