Optical proximity communication (OPxC) with reflecting mirrors is presented. Direct optical links are demonstrated for silicon chips with better than -2.5dB coupling loss, excluding surface losses. OPxC is a true broadband solution with little impairment to the signal integrity for high-speed optical transmission. With wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) enabled OPxC, very high bandwidth density I/O, orders of magnitude higher than the traditional electrical I/O, can be achieved for silicon chips.
