Abstract

A detection device for detecting a power of an input light is provided with a light-receiving module that outputs an electrical signal according to a power of an input light received at a light-receiving surface and an optical system that collimates and guides to the light-receiving surface the input light from the outside. Moreover, this detection device is provided with a structure that decreases an incidence angle of the input light at an interface between the optical system and the light-receiving surface.

Claims (25)

1. A detection device that detects a power of an input light, comprising:

a light-receiving module comprising a light-receiving surface and that outputs an electrical signal according to the power of the input light received at the light-receiving surface; and

an optical system that collimates and guides to the light-receiving surface the input light from an outside; wherein

the detection device decreases an incidence angle of the input light at an interface between the optical system and the light-receiving surface to be no more than 30 degrees.

2. A detection device that detects a power of an input light, comprising:

a light-receiving module that has a light-receiving surface and outputs an electrical signal according to the power of the input light received at the light-receiving surface;

an optical lens that collimates and guides to the light-receiving surface the input light from an outside; and

an optical component that decreases an incidence angle of the input light at an interface between the optical lens and the light-receiving module.

3. The detection device according to claim 2 , wherein

the light-receiving module comprises a transparent covering body covering the light-receiving surface and receives the input light that arrives via the transparent covering body at the light-receiving surface and,

the optical component decreases an incidence angle of the input light at a surface of the transparent covering body.

4. The detection device according to claim 3 , wherein

the optical component decreases the incidence angle to be no more than 30 degrees.

5. The detection device according to claim 3 , wherein

the optical component is a prism disposed in a path of the input light between the optical lens and the covering body.

6. A detection device that detects a power of an input light, comprising:

a light-receiving module that has a light-receiving surface and outputs an electrical signal according to the power of the input light received at the light-receiving surface;

an optical lens that collimates and guides to the light-receiving surface the input light from an outside; and

an optical component that decreases an incidence angle of the input light at an interface between the optical lens and the light-receiving module,

wherein the light-receiving module comprises a transparent covering body covering the light-receiving surface and receives the input light that arrives via the transparent covering body at the light-receiving surface and,

wherein the optical component decreases an incidence angle of the input light at a surface of the transparent covering body.

7. The detection device according to claim 6 , wherein

the optical component decreases the incidence angle to be no more than 30 degrees.

8. The detection device according to claim 6 , wherein

the optical component is a prism disposed in a path of the input light between the optical lens and the covering body.
