  • Publication number: 20120241795
    Abstract: The present invention provides an optoelectronic module including a substrate, an optoelectronic device and a control unit. The substrate includes a top surface, a bottom surface, a concave structure, a through hole structure and a conductive material. The concave structure is disposed on the top surface. The through hole structure passes through the substrate from the top surface to the bottom surface. The conductive material is filled into the through hole structure. The optoelectronic device is disposed on the substrate for providing or receiving an optical signal. The control unit is configured on the top surface and electrically connected to the conductive material and the optoelectronic device for controlling the optoelectronic device.

  • Publication number: 20120057822
    Abstract: An optical coupler module includes a semiconductor substrate disposed on the print circuit board; a reflecting trench structure formed on the semiconductor substrate; a reflector formed on a slant surface of the reflecting trench structure; a strip trench structure formed on the semiconductor substrate and connecting with the reflecting trench structure; a thin film disposed on the above-mentioned structure. The optical coupler module further includes a signal conversion unit disposed on the semiconductor substrate and the position of the signal conversion unit corresponds to the reflector; and an optical waveguide structure formed in the trench structures. The optical signal from the signal conversion unit is reflected by the reflector and then transmitted in the optical waveguide structure, or in a reverse direction to reach the signal conversion unit.

  • Publication number: 20110286694
    Abstract: An optical transmission module includes a semiconductor substrate, a first film layer, an electronic component layer and a waveguide structure. The electronic component layer is used for converting a first electrical signal into an optical signal. The waveguide structure is formed on the first film layer, and includes a first reflective surface, a waveguide body and a second reflective surface. After the optical signal is transmitted through the semiconductor substrate and the first film layer and enters the waveguide structure, the optical signal is reflected by the first reflective surface, transmitted within the waveguide body and reflected by the second reflective surface. After the optical signal reflected by the second reflective surface is transmitted through the first film layer and the semiconductor substrate and received by the electronic component layer, the optical signal is converted into a second electrical signal by the electronic component layer.

  • Publication number: 20110286695
    Abstract: The optical coupler module for converting and transmitting electrical/optical signals includes a semiconductor substrate, a first film, a second film, an electrical transmission unit, at least one signal conversion unit and an optical waveguide structure. The first film and the second film are formed on opposite surfaces of the semiconductor substrate. The signal conversion unit and the optical waveguide structure are disposed on opposite sides of the semiconductor substrate. The optical waveguide structure has a reflector and a waveguide body. The optical signal generated from the signal conversion unit sequentially passes the first film, the semiconductor substrate and the second film and enters the optical waveguide structure. Then, the optical signal is reflected by the reflector and transmitted in the waveguide body to be outputted. Alternatively, the optical signal is transmitted in a reverse direction from the optical waveguide structure to the signal conversion unit.
