DECi-hertz Interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory (DECIGO) is the future Japanese space gravitational antenna. It aims at detecting various kinds of waves between 1 mHz and 100 Hz frequently enough to open a new window observation for astronomy.

For efficient light coupling from and into an optical multi-chip module (MCM), the micro-lens array connector (MLAC) is developed. MLAC, composed of a waveguide side lens fiber connector, integrates 24 collimation micro-lense pairs in its small volume, realizing high bandwidth density, low loss, large alignment tolerance simple assembling process.
