An integrated multi-channel transmitter for fiber optic applications is disclosed.
The transmitter includes a laser array coupled to a modulator chip by way of an
isolator sandwiched between two lenslet arrays. The modulator chip includes an
array of modulators, with each one receiving the output of one of the lasers. The
chip also includes a coupler that receives the outputs from the modulators and
combines them into a single, combined output signal which, in turn, may be coupled
an output fiber.
