= Universal Optical Waveguide Trays =

'''Abstract''':
a tray for carrying workpieces, such as optical waveguides, is disclosed. the tray includes a plurality of openings, each opening having a plurality of fingers extending toward the center of the opening. the top surface of each finger is sloped downward and comprises an elastomer. in this way, the workpieces contact the fingers along their edges and any nanostructures disposed on the workpiece are not contacted. further, in some embodiments, the tray is stackable and includes a retention mechanism located on the bottom side of the tray. the retention mechanism on a first tray serves to secure the workpiece disposed on a second tray positioned directly below the first tray. the tray may optionally be used for shipping and other purposes.
