Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the dielectric strength between an input and output of an optical coupler by forming an optical coupling unit in a single layer to be formed of epoxy resin of the same type as a sheath resin in a simplified structure so that the boundary of the resin is scarcely separated. CONSTITUTION:After a GaAs infrared light emitting element 3 is bonded to an element placing unit 1a and an Si photodetecting element 4 is bonded to an element placing unit 2a, they are wire bonded by gold wirings 5. Then, the elements 3, 4 are integrally molded with light transmissible epoxy resin 7 added with silicone resin and optical scattering agent, and the outside is molded with optical opaque epoxy resin 8. Accordingly, since the same resin as a sheath resin is used for the resin of the coupling unit, both have substantially the same expansion coefficients, and the boundary is not separated. Thus, the dielectric strength between an input and an output are enhanced, a reflecting layer is omitted, and its structure is simplified.

Therefore, peeling is likely to occur at the interface, and dielectric breakdown occurs through the peeled interface.
