• The influence of scratches, particles and oil contaminationon optical performance of SC connectors was investigated
• Scratches (2 mm or less), within fiber MFD, has no impacton IL can degrade the RL
• The level of RL degradation depends on the size (widthand depth) and, the number of the scratches crossingMFD
• Polishing scratches outside the MFD have no impact on IL& RL

Results cont.• Carbon/dust particles located at the distance <25 mm
from the core can resulted in a significant increase ofIL ( 0.5-1 dB ) and decrease in RL (20-30 dB change)
• Based on our results, carbon/dust particles located at≥25 mm from the core have minimum impact on IL (< 0.02dB) and RL (< 4dB)
• Removable contamination can be redistributed during themating/demating operation. Hence, removablecontamination is not acceptable.
• Application of oil contamination resulted in significantdegradation of RL (10-12 dB) and didn’t result in anysignificant changes of IL
11Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
• Future studies will investigate more on the effects of theparticles when they are locate at the cladding layer as wellas focusing on particle size, quantity and different particletypes

The optoelectronics industry is moving at a rapidpace and new ideas and processes occur almostevery week. The printed wiring board is one ofthe components that may impact or be impactedby the optoelectronic momentum. To enable theoptoelectronic industry to meet it’s cost andperformance targets the PWB must be able tocarry both electrons and photons in the samesubstrate. The NEMI Optoelectronic Substrateteam will investigate the use of opticalwaveguides in or on PWB’s.

Current Statement:
Initial investigation by the committee determined that the OEM’swere not planning to use optoelectronics in their next generationmachines.
The OEM’s felt that optoelectronics was at least two generationsaway from implementation in product that effect the revenue stream
The OEM’s were all working on internal analysis's of optoelectronicsolutions and were all interested in participating in a NEMItechnology analysis activity.
There are numerous estimates of how far copper can be pushed toincrease data rates. The estimates range from 2.5 Gb/s to 40 Gb/s.

27Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
SMF-EDF Splice Loss -- Key Findings
• Light emitted from the EDF has a larger cone (NA) cf. SMF-28
• The integrating sphere collects a fraction of all the emitted light,independent of angle
• In the absence of the IS some of the light emitted at higher angles maynot be coupled onto the detector, or be detected as efficiently
• Hence highest loss occurs when EDF is coupled to the detector
• Directionality is an artifact of the measurement set-up
• Users need to be aware of the issue and take corrective action
• For example, measure the EDFÆSMF direction, measure both
directions and average, and/or use an IS
• Even with a directional system, the sum (average) of the two directionsgives the same/“correct” value for the splice loss (verified w/site-to-site)
28Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
Planned & Possible Follow-on Activities
• Verify test methods for dissimilar fiber splices, SMF28-X (X = EDF,LEAF, high NA)… currently in-progress
– BFA/single cut-back, add-on, inserted section methods
• Write project report
• Project completion 1Q ‘04
• Form follow-on project (with IPC/TIA/IEC) to develop lossmeasurement standards
– low loss SMF-SMF splicing and dissimilar fiber splices
• Splicer estimator accuracy metric, based on confidence limits
– Splice SMF at limits of MFD, core concentricity, eccentricity andbatch-to-batch variation, depending on interest
• Low loss standard “splice” for accuracy assessment, with NIST

NEMI & StandardsNEMI & Standards
• NEMI is not a formal standards body.
• However, many NEMI deployment projects canbenefit from adoption of open industrystandards.
• Our strategy then is to collaborate with otherindustry groups as required to develop theappropriate standards that will accelerateadoption of technology and business practices.
• This collaboration is driven by specific needsof NEMI projects and Technology IntegrationGroups (TIGs).
31Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
Existing Cooperation on StandardsExisting Cooperation on Standards
• NEMI has worked with the following groups todevelop and deploy standards:
– EIA/JEDEC (typically on Semiconductor Packaging)
– IEEE (machine interface software)
– IPC (Printed Wiring Board fabrication & assembly,data exchange)
– RosettaNet (data exchange)
• Typically we enter into a written agreement withorganizations that spells out:
– Roles & Responsibilities

Roadmap Gaps– Passive alignment and self-aligning devices/components to
support pick & place module assembly
– Continued development in areas that promise lower cost opticalcomponents such as tunable lasers, VCSELs, SOAs andsemiconductor switch products
– A system wide view of thermal management to reduce powerconsumption and the cost of keeping optical components withinoperating ranges. Development of more stable optical materialsand designs, use of heat pipes and other methods to removeheat, more efficient cooler technology
– More advanced development of photonic crystal or othertechnologies that promise to put photonics on a size reductionroadmap comparable to electronics.

Device TechnologyDevice Technology
Discussion– May be of limited ability for current NEMI industry members to
impact/leverage. Intel, Sumitomo/Excelight
– Work through other orgs & Universities, e.g. OIDA
– OIDA PTAP program supports getting leading-edge devices intoUniversities for evaluation & testing
– Nanotech/MEMS, photonic bandgap crystals, and other emergingtechnologies need to be watched
38Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
IntegrationIntegration
Definition– Combine several functions in a single optical component to
reduce costs and improve performance
– Reducing number of optical interfaces improves reliability
– Passive alignment assembly, use of stops, standoffs, V-grooves
Examples– Lensed fiber end
– CD/DVD read-write head (combines source, lens, mirror,polarizer, detector)
– Planar lightwave circuit (PLC), eliminate first level packagestructure
– Si optical bench, waferboard
– Wafer level VCSEL lens fabrication
– Multichannel VCSEL & detector arrays
39Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
IntegrationIntegration
Gaps– Technologies must be developed that support effective hybrid
integration of components into lower cost, smaller, higherfunctioning subsystems
– Development in ‘optical solders’ and board level wave-guides toenable more complex and higher density
– Common platform for both optical, OE & electronic devices
– Pick & place compatible, passive alignment hybrid devices
– Low loss, small radii 90° bends & waveguide-device coupling
– Platform for fiber-free assembly, e.g. waveguide based, withpassive fiber coupling, e.g. V-groove
– More intelligent network management to take advantage oftransport capability and services and to improve networkutilization (system/network level)
40Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
IntegrationIntegration
Discussion– Hybrid OE integration is realistic, monolithic has even more
challenges
– Some interesting passive alignment approaches coming out ofstart-ups, e.g.
• Avanti, “lego” building block assembly, ball & V-groove
• Xponent, surface mount photonics, transverse mode coupling
– Propose program to get innovative modules & packages intoindustry for evaluation & qualification (like a PTAP)
– Need for lifetime/reliability prediction
– Need for COO modeling
– NEMI member preference for evolutionary vs. revolutionary
41Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
AutomationAutomation
Gaps– Improved subcomponents and materials that lead toward
automation will be key to supporting the higher volumes expectedat the edge of the network. This includes self aligning structuresand structures that can be assembled without concern regardingchanging alignment. Also certified materials that are recognizedand expected to meet specific reliability and performancerequirements for various market segments/applications so thatrisk and costs are reduced.
– Assembly processes and equipment that support integratingelectronics and optics into single packages
– Improved fiber management or elimination of fiber to allow forconventional electronic processes for modules/board level
– Design tools that support specific manufacturing processes andalso support integration of analysis to speed products to marketand reduce development costs.
42Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
AutomationAutomation
Discussion– Current OE volumes too low to justify development of new/ high
capex equipment
– Lasky argues world-wide OE component capacity can be met byapprox. 20 machines, based on SMT-like throughput
– Lack of standardized processes & packages major challenge,drives complexity/cost
– Move to LCGs further inhibits demand for automation
– First need to address DFM (e.g. passive alignment), yields andstandardization
– Emphasis on using existing equipment/platforms, SMT, dieattach, wirebonders, encap...
43Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
StandardsStandards
Gaps– Packaging represents one of the highest costs of current O/E
components and also represents a major cost to using thesecomponents in higher assemblies. New packaging standards must bedeveloped to address changes in reliability, scope and usability
– Reliability standards are well established for the telecommunicationsbackbone networks. New standards should be established for otherapplications including datacom and premise applications
– Interoperability standards need to be established to allow for the mixingand matching of hardware to achieve more competition and betterproduction scales. Engineered links that guarantee optical performanceend to end to interoperable standards would also significantly reduce theCAPEX and OPEX costs to service providers
– Testing needs to be standardized so lower cost test equipment can bedeveloped for use in both manufacturing and in the field
– Improved transport standards to support data protocols.
– List prioritized standards identified in IPC Std 0040
44Connect with and Strengthen your Supply ChainConnect with and Strengthen your Supply Chain
StandardsStandards
Discussion– Need for assembly & test standards across all levels, impacts all
NEMI members
– Distinguish between de-facto industry standards, like MSAs,which can be achieved quickly (lead technology development),vs. Standard Organizations that can take years (lag)
– NEMI has strong liaison with IPC, and recent links to TIA and IEC
– Telcordia (Bellcore) reliability stnds well entrenched for telecom.
– IPC has identified 23 areas for standardization in Std 0040
– We would be doing well if we developed & verified some keydraft standards and submitted them to IPC/TIA/IEC
– Need for lifetime/reliability requirements, particularly for datacomand last mile applications
