Original Abstract Submitted
Apparatuses, systems, assemblies, and techniques related to integrating photonics integrated circuit devices and electronic integrated circuit devices into an assembly or module are described. An integrated module includes a photonics integrated circuit device within an opening of a glass core substrate and an electronic integrated circuit device direct bonded to the photonics integrated circuit device. An optical waveguide is within or on the glass core substrate and has a terminal end edge coupled to the photonics integrated circuit device within the opening.
