Original Abstract Submitted

A semiconductor package includes a first interposer having a first substrate, a first redistribution structure over a first side of the first substrate, and a first waveguide over the first redistribution structure and proximate to a first side of the first interposer, where the first redistribution structure is between the first substrate and the first waveguide. The semiconductor package further includes a photonic package attached to the first side of the first interposer, where the photonic package includes: an electronic die, and a photonic die having a plurality of dielectric layers and a second waveguide in one of the plurality of dielectric layers, where a first side of the photonic die is attached to the electronic die, and an opposing second side of the photonic die is attached to the first side of the first interposer, where the second waveguide is proximate to the second side of the photonic die.
