Abstract: An optical module for an optical device and an optical fiber is constituted by a pre-molded plastic package. In forming the plastic package, the main flowing direction of the molding resin is substantially parallel with the optical axis of the optical fiber. The optical module is formed by molding the resin by injection using pressure and then solidifying the resin. When the plastic package is formed by comprehensive molding, the flowing direction of the resin is parallel with the optical axis direction of the optical fiber to be installed in the optical module. As a result, for comprehensive molding, the molding pressure applied to the optical fiber is reduced. By using the resin case that is formed, the resulting package exhibits high rigidity and low thermal expansion properties in connection with the flowing direction of the resin, thus reducing the external stress and thermal stress applied to the optical fiber.

Abstract: An optical communication equipment includes a semiconductor laser element, an image-forming element, an optical fiber and a substrate for mounting the semiconductor laser element, the image-forming element and the optical fiber.

The image-forming element is mounted in a V-groove formed in the substrate and having a substantially “V”-shaped cross-section. A shortest distance between a light spot of the semiconductor laser element and an optical axis of the image-forming element is 1 mm at most and the image-forming element substantially satisfies the sine condition.

Abstract: In an optical coupling apparatus, an optical isolator and an optical fiber are arranged inside a pipe of a side surface of a package. A distal end of the optical fiber is arranged within a range of 3.0 mm from an inner/outer surface of the side surface of the package and a distance from a laser diode to the distal end is within a range from 3.5 to 7.5 mm. Distance from the inner side surface of the package to a Peltier device is within a range of 6.0 mm. A metallize pattern film applied to a terminal substrate of the package and the Peltier device are connected through wiring bonding and a connection position is closer to the optical fiber than a lead terminal provided to the terminal substrate of the package that corresponds to the Peltier device.

Abstract: When an optical system is housed in a plastic case, an optical connection in the system might be changed by a deformation of the case due to heat and thermal resistance might be increased. It is important that the case has not only a function of housing the elements of the optical system, but also a function of ensuring that light is stably produced in the optical system, which, is the most important function of the case. Therefore, the deformation of the case due to a change in temperature is prevented by a frame inserted into the opening portion of the case and further by mounting the case on an external aluminum substrate. That is, stability in the optical connection is improved by improving the structure of the case and by mounting an case on the external substrate. Further, an increase in the thermal resistance is prevented in the same way by provision of the frame and the external aluminum substrate.
