Integrated optical device
An integrated optical device allowing for higher flexibility in designing its outer shape and securing hermetic sealing is provided, which includes a ceramic substrate mounting a light source, a covering member fixed to the substrate for covering the light source, and a resin mold package for attaching the substrate, wherein a metal joint portion on the substrate and a metal joint portion on the covering member are joined, as well as a through-hole in the substrate or in covering member is sealed with a transparent material for hermetic sealing of the light source.
1. An integrated optical device comprising:
a ceramic substrate on which a light source including a light emitting element is mounted and a light path for passing through a light emitted from said light emitting element is formed;
a covering member attached to said ceramic substrate for covering said light source mounted on said ceramic substrate; and
a resin mold casing to which said ceramic substrate is attached; wherein,
hermetic sealing of said light source portion is formed by joining a metal joint section formed in circumference of said light source portion on said ceramic substrate and a metal joint section formed on said covering member and by sealing said light path with a sealing member made of a transparent material.
2. The integrated optical device according to claim 1 , wherein a heat conducting surface is provided on an attachment portion that is jointed with said resin mold casing in said ceramic substrate and connected to a heat conducting member provided on said resin mold casing.
3. The integrated optical device according to claim 1 , wherein a light receiving element is mounted on a surface opposite to a surface on which said ceramic substrate is mounted in said resin mold casing.
4. The integrated optical device according to claim 1 , wherein said light emitting element is a semiconductor laser.
5. The integrated optical device according to claim 1 , wherein a light path of said light emitting element is deflected by 90° by an optical component.
6. The integrated optical device according to claim 1 , wherein said ceramic substrate is a multilayer substrate.
7. The integrated optical device according to claim 6 , wherein said multilayer substrate has interlayer wiring.
8. An integrated optical device comprising:
a ceramic substrate on which a light source including a light emitting element is mounted;
a covering member being attached to said ceramic substrate for covering said light source mounted thereon, said covering member being provided with a light path for passing through a light emitted from said light emitting element; and
a resin mold casing to which said ceramic substrate is attached; wherein,
hermetic sealing of said light source portion is formed by joining a metal joint section formed in said circumference of said light source portion on said ceramic substrate and a metal joint section formed on said covering member, and by sealing said light path with a sealing member made of a transparent material.
9. The integrated optical device according to claim 8 , wherein a heat conducting surface is provided on an attachment portion that is jointed with said resin mold casing in said ceramic substrate and connected to a heat conducting member provided on said resin mold casing.
10. The integrated optical device according to claim 8 , wherein a light receiving element is mounted on the same mounting surface as said light source on said ceramic substrate.
11. The integrated optical device according to claim 8 , wherein said light emitting element is a semiconductor laser.
12. The integrated optical device according to claim 8 , wherein a light path of said light emitting element is deflected by 90° by an optical component.
13. The integrated optical device according to claim 8 , wherein said ceramic substrate is a multilayer substrate.
