  • Publication number: 20240118491
    Abstract: A photonic semiconductor device including a light-emitting component and a photonic integrated circuit is provided. The light-emitting component at least includes a gain medium layer, a first contact layer and a first optical coupling layer stacked to each other. The photonic integrated circuit includes a second optical coupling layer. The light-emitting component and the photonic integrated circuit are stacked in a stacking direction, the first optical coupling layer has a first taper portion, the second optical coupling layer has a second taper portion, and the first taper portion and the second taper portion overlap in the stacking direction. Accordingly, the light emitted from the gain medium layer may be transmitted to the second taper portion from the first taper portion by optical coupling in a short length of an optical coupling path.

  • Patent number: 8634039
    Abstract: A display device includes a display module, a cover plate, and a light shielding film. The display module includes a display panel. The display panel has a black matrix pattern that surrounds a display area. The cover plate is configured on the display module. The light shielding film is adhered to at least one of the display module and the cover plate and located between the display module and the cover plate. The light shielding film is substantially located outside the display area, and an inter-medium is configured between the light shielding film and the cover plate and between the display module and the cover plate.

  • Patent number: 8520161
    Abstract: This invention provides a display device and the assembly method thereof. The display device includes a first electronic module and a second electronic module partly overlapping each other. The first electronic module includes a first signal transmission unit with one side extending to form a first extension section. The second electronic module includes a second signal transmission unit partly overlapping the first signal transmission unit and having a side extending to form a first connection section. The first extension section overlaps and is electrically connected to the first connection section. Part of the overlapping first extension section and first connection section are bent to partly overlap the second signal transmission unit. Thus the second signal transmission unit is able to accept and to transmit signals via the first signal transmission unit of the first electronic device.
