A transparent elastomer (e.g. silicon rubber) is used as an immersion agent (10) for durable and low-attenuation connection of an optical waveguide (2) to the conductive structures of an optical component (6). The matrix of said elastomer contains a non-cross-linked proportion of a liquid phase (e.g. silicon softeners). The same kind of immersion agent (10) is used in the coupling system. The distance between the end face of the optical waveguide (2) and the coupling surface of the component (6) ranges from approximately 2µm to 20µm. The volume of the immersion agent (10) present at the point of coupling (8) is less than 5µl.

L'invention concerne un agent d'immersion (10) pour la connexion durable et à faible amortissement d'un guide d'ondes optiques (2) aux structures conductrices d'un composant optique (6). On utilise comme agent d'immersion un élastomère transparent (par exemple, du caoutchouc de silicone) dont la matrice contient une part non réticulée de phase liquide (par exemple, un plastifiant de silicone). Un tel agent d'immersion (10) est utilisé dans le système de couplage selon l'invention. L'écart de la surface terminale du guide d'ondes optiques (2) à la surface de couplage du composant (6) est compris entre environ 2 µm et 20 µm, le volume de l'agent d'immersion (10) présent au point de couplage (8) étant inférieur à 5 µl.
