Optical interface assembly and optical module
An optical interface assembly, comprising a lens, an optical receptacle, a stub disposed in the optical receptacle. The lens includes a convex surface farther away from the stub and a flat surface near the stub, the flat surface and a cross section of the lens being disposed at an inclined angle from each other. A first end surface of the stub facing the lens is disposed at an inclined angle relative to an axis of the stub. When a light beam is coupled into the stub by the lens, a portion of a return light reflected from the first end surface of the stub is reflected to an outside of the lens.
1. An optical interface assembly, comprising a lens, an optical receptacle, and a stub disposed in the optical receptacle,
wherein
the lens comprises a convex surface farther away from the stub and a flat surface near the stub, the flat surface and a cross section of the lens being disposed at an inclined angle from each other,
a first end surface of the stub facing the lens is disposed at an inclined angle relative to an axis of the stub,
the flat surface of the lens and the first end surface of the stub are substantially parallel to each other,
an optical axis of the lens is parallel with an optical axis of the stub, and the optical axis of the lens does not coincide with the optical axis of the stub, and
the flat surface of the lens, the optical axis of the lens, the first end surface of the stub, the optical axis of the stub, and a distance between the flat surface of the lens and the first end surface of the stub, are configured such that, when a light beam is coupled into the stub by the lens, a portion of a return light reflected from the first end surface of the stub is transmitted to an outside of the lens.
2. The optical interface assembly of claim 1 , wherein
the inclined angle between the flat surface and the cross section of the lens is between 0° and 15°.
3. The optical interface assembly of claim 1 , wherein
an angle between the first end surface of the stub and a cross section of the stub is between 0° and 15°.
4. The optical interface assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a diaphragm disposed between the lens and the stub, the diaphragm including a light passing hole,
wherein a diameter of the light passing hole is smaller than a diameter of a light passing surface of the lens.
5. The optical interface assembly of claim 4 , wherein
the diameter of the light passing hole is smaller than a diameter of a light passing surface of the stub.
6. The optical interface assembly of claim 5 , wherein
an end surface of the diaphragm facing the stub is a surface that has undergone blackening treatment.
7. The optical interface assembly of claim 1 , wherein a second end surface of the stub farther away from the lens is disposed at an inclined angle relative to the axis of the stub, a direction of inclination of the second end surface being different from a direction of inclination of the first end surface.
8. The optical interface assembly of claim 7 , wherein the direction of the inclination of the first end surface of the stub is 90° relative to the direction of the inclination of the second end surface of the stub.
9. An optical module, comprising a housing, and a light transmitting end, and a light receiving end disposed in the housing, wherein the optical module further comprises the optical interface assembly of claim 1 .
