[0065] Specifically, the integration of a spot size converter (SSC) on the chip aims to solve the problem of light coupling efficiency in micro-nano optoelectronic integrated devices, especially the efficient coupling between the chip and the external optical fiber 5. This technology changes the propagation mode of light at the interface of different media and reduces the light loss caused by mode mismatch, thereby improving the performance and efficiency of the entire photonic integrated circuit (PIC).

[0066] In some embodiments, the optical fiber 5 is a flexible single-mode optical fiber 5 with a small core diameter, which can support higher data transmission rates and longer transmission distances. Since light propagates in a single mode, mode dispersion is reduced, so that the signal distortion of the single-mode optical fiber 5 is extremely small, and it can support a transmission distance of up to hundreds of kilometers, which is very suitable for long-distance communication networks and has strong anti-interference ability: single-mode optical fiber 5 has almost no inter-mode dispersion and low sensitivity to external interference, which is suitable for application environments requiring high stability and bandwidth. Single-mode optical fiber 5 supports a larger bandwidth and can meet the needs of high-speed data transmission, such as rates of 10Gbps, 40Gbps or even above 100Gbps. Light source requirements: single-mode optical fiber 5 uses a CW laser as a light source. Compared with the vertical surface cavity array laser (VCSEL) light source used in multi-mode optical fiber, which has large dispersion, large crosstalk, and large loss, which will limit the transmission distance, the single-mode optical fiber 5 has better monochromaticity and can better match the narrow core diameter of the single-mode optical fiber 5 to ensure signal purity and transmission quality.

[0067] In some embodiments, the cladding diameter of the optical fiber is 60-125um, and in some embodiments it can be 80um or 125um.

[0068] In some embodiments, the core diameter of the optical fiber is 3-10 um, and in some embodiments it can be 9 um or 6.5 um.

[0069] In some embodiments, the first electronic component 32 and the first photonic component 33 are integrated on a single chip by using monolithic packaging technology.

[0070] In some embodiments, the second electronic component 42 and the second photonic component 43 are integrated on a single chip by using monolithic packaging technology.

[0071] Specifically, the volume, weight and power consumption of the system are greatly reduced, and the stability and reliability of the system are improved, so that the second photodetector 333 used in the first photonic component 32 and the first photodetector 433 used in the second photonic component 42 do not require an electrostatic protector (ESD), thereby overcoming the problem that the photonic chip and the electronic chip are easily damaged by electrostatics when they are two chips packaged in the traditional solution.

[0072] In some embodiments, an optical communication system is also proposed, including: a head-mounted device 1, a host 2, and an optical fiber 5 communication device for the head-mounted device 1 as described in the above embodiment, wherein the two ends of the optical fiber 5 communication device for the head-mounted device 1 are respectively connected to the head-mounted device 1 and the host 2 for communication between the head-mounted device 1 and the host 2.
