In the field of optical chips, before a wafer is cut into a plurality of optical chips, the optical chips need to be tested to ensure the quality of the optical chips.
The test of the optical chip is a non-contact test, so before the optical chip is tested, an optimal coupling point between the test end of the optical chip and the test optical fiber needs to be found.

In addition, the scanning speed of the method is slower, and the actual moving distance of the optical fiber has errors, and the scanning points of two-dimensional scanning often have hundreds of scanning points, so that the accumulated errors generated when the optical fiber moves are larger, the optimal coupling point is inaccurate, and the accuracy of the optical chip test is affected.
