Abstract
A method and device for wafer level testing of semiconductor lasers allows probing from one side while detecting light output from the opposite side. A chuck with a transparent substrate receives the optical aperture side of a wafer of semiconductor lasers. The wafer is probed form the side opposite the side contacting the chuck and emitted light is detected on a side of the chuck opposite the side contacting the wafer.
