Abstract: Optoelectronic devices (e.g., optical proximity sensors), methods for fabricating optoelectronic devices, and systems including optoelectronic devices, are described herein. An optoelectronic device includes a light detector die that includes a light detector sensor area. A light source die is attached to a portion of the light detector die that does not include the light detector sensor area. An opaque barrier is formed between the light detector sensor area and the light source die, and a light transmissive material encapsulates the light detector sensor area and the light source die. Rather than requiring a separate base substrate (e.g., a PCB substrate) to which are connected a light source die and a light detector die, the light source die is connected to the light detector die, such that the light detector die acts as the base for the finished optoelectronic device. This provides for cost reductions and reduces the total package footprint.
