Abstract

A detection device includes a substrate, a light-emitter, and a light receiver. The substrate includes a first surface area and a second surface area, in which the first surface area has a first reflectance greater than a second reflectance of the second surface area. The light emitter is disposed on the first surface area, and the light receiver is disposed on the second surface area. The light receiver has a third reflectance which is substantially the same as the second reflectance of the second surface area.

Claims (14)

1. A detection device, comprising:

a substrate comprising a first surface area and a second surface area, wherein the first surface area has a first reflectance greater than a second reflectance of the second surface area;

a light emitter disposed on the first surface area; and

a light receiver disposed on the second surface area, wherein the light receiver has a third reflectance which is substantially the same as the second reflectance of the second surface area;

a first wall disposed between the first surface area and the second surface area, wherein the first wall comprises a surface facing toward the light emitter and having the first reflectance, and wherein the first wall comprises another surface facing toward the light receiver and having the second reflectance.

2. The detection device of claim 1 , wherein the light receiver has a color the same as a color of the second surface area.

3. The detection device of claim 1 , wherein the second surface area surrounds a periphery of the first surface area.

4. The detection device of claim 3 , wherein the first surface area is circular, and the second surface area is annular.

5. The detection device of claim 1 comprising a second wall extending along a periphery of the second surface area.

6. The detection device of claim 5 , further comprising an optical top cap which has an optical lens and a third wall, wherein the optical lens has an outer surface and an inner surface, on which the third wall is disposed, and wherein the third wall is in contact with the first wall to form a space accommodating the light receiver.

7. The detection device of claim 6 , further comprising a fourth wall disposed on the inner surface, wherein the fourth wall is in contact with the second wall to form a space accommodating the light receiver.

8. The detection device of claim 1 , wherein the first reflectance is greater than or equal to 90%, and wherein the second reflectance is smaller than or equal to 10%.

9. The detection device of claim 1 , wherein the light emitter is electrically connected to the substrate in a flip chip package or in a wire bonding package.

10. The detection device of claim 1 , wherein the light receiver is electrically connected to the substrate in a flip chip package or in a wire bonding package.
