Abstract

A fiber-flexure-substrate tray for transporting and protecting optical modules and optical module components. The fiber-flexture substrate tray may have a tray body for supporting an optical fiber and other components coupled to the optical fiber while the optical fiber and the other components are processed. In addition, the fiber-flexure-substrate tray may have a thermally conductive substrate holder coupled to the tray body for heat-treating other components coupled to the optical fiber. The tray body may have a support area designed to hold the optical fiber off of the thermally conductive substrate holder to thermally isolate the optical fiber. In addition, a component may be coupled to the tray to hold the optical fiber off of the thermally conductive substrate holder.
