Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a compact opto-electric probe. Described are various configurations for performing efficient optical and electrical testing of an opto-electrical device using a compact opto-electrical probe. The compact opto-electrical probe can include electrical contacts arranged for a given electrical contact layout of the opto-electrical device, and optical interface with a window in a probe core that transmits light from the opto-electrical device. An adjustable optical coupler of the probe can be mechanically positioned to receive light from the device's emitter to perform simultaneous optical and electrical analysis of the device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to electrical circuit interfaces, and more particularly to optical and electrical interface systems. Background technique [0002] In semiconductor manufacturing, wafer testing of semiconductor devices is performed prior to singulation of the wafer into a plurality of die (eg, dicing or separation into chips). The test equipment may interface with the wafer using a wafer prober that interacts with the wafer using test patterns to test wafer components (eg, various circuits on the wafer). Some wafers may include optical components (eg, light emitters, photonic circuits) and electrical components that are designed to work simultaneously in production (eg, after singulation and integration into a product). Wafer-level testing of hybrid optical and electrical wafers is difficult due to the larger size of test equipment and the compact size of modern high-speed optoelectronic devices.
