Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor chip packaging, in particular to a photoelectric co-packaging optical coupling passive alignment packaging structure and method. According to the invention, high-precision automatic alignment of the grating coupler in the optical chip and the through hole of the adapter plate is realized by using the solder ball tension effect in the flip reflow soldering process of the optical chip, and a stable optical limiting structure is formed. The passive coupling of the optical elements (such as bare optical fibers, optical fiber arrays, reflectors and the like) and the grating coupler is realized by placing the optical elements with matched sizes in the via holes of the adapter plate and completing refractive index matching and structure fixing by using curing glue. The whole process does not need additional active alignment equipment, is the same as a traditional chip packaging process, has the advantages of being simple in process, low in cost and high in packaging efficiency, and is a key packaging technology of a photoelectric co-packaging system in the future.
