This article deals with instrumentation challenges of the stellar interferometry mission IRSI-Darwin of the European Space Agency. The necessity to have a reliable and performant system for beam recombination has enlightened the advantages of an integrated optics solution, which is already in use for ground-base interferomety in the near infrared. However, since Darwin will operate in the mid infrared, this requires extending the integrated optics concept in this spectral range. This paper presents the guiding lines of the characterization work that should validate a new integrated optics concept for the mid infrared. We present also one example of characterization experiment we are working on.
