Optical system and method of manufacturing the same
An optical system and a method of manufacturing an optical system are provided. The optical system includes a carrier, a light emitter, a light receiver, a block structure and an encapsulant. The light emitter is disposed on the carrier. The light receiver is disposed on the carrier and physically spaced apart from the light emitter. The light receiver has a light detecting area. The block structure is disposed on the carrier. The encapsulant is disposed on the carrier and covers the light emitter, the light receiver and the block structure. The encapsulant has a recess over the block structure.
1. An optical system, comprising:
a light emitter disposed on a carrier;
a light receiver disposed on the carrier;
a block structure configured to mitigate a crosstalk between the light emitter and the light receiver; and
an encapsulant disposed on the carrier, the light emitter and the light receiver, wherein a portion of the block structure is exposed from the encapsulant and below the encapsulant.
2. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein a top surface of the portion of the block structure is lower than a top surface of the encapsulant.
3. The optical system of claim 2 , wherein the encapsulant and the top surface of the portion of the block structure define a recess.
4. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein a top surface of the block structure has a central portion and a peripheral portion, and the central portion is lower than the peripheral portion.
5. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein the block structure further has a curved surface.
6. The optical system of claim 1 , wherein a top surface of the portion of the block structure is lower than a top surface of the encapsulant, the top surface of the portion of the block structure has a central portion and a peripheral portion, the central portion of the top surface of the block structure is lower than the peripheral portion of the top surface of the block structure, and the block structure further has a curved surface.
