Description

Optical module
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of manufacturing of optical communication elements, and particularly relates to an optical module.
Background
In an optical module, some devices need to operate in a fixed temperature range, and a refrigerator is often needed to control the temperature of the devices. When the temperature of the refrigerator is controlled, heat of an external environment connected with the refrigerator needs to be transferred to an internal device (generally, a photoelectric device such as a laser device) connected with the refrigerator. In particular, when the temperature of the internal device is lower than the ambient temperature, condensation is easily generated around the refrigerator. Therefore, the refrigerator and the internal devices need to be packaged in a ceramic case.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a conventional optical module with a refrigerator 2. The structural schematic diagram of the optical module shows a part of elements inside the optical module shell. Wherein the laser 3 and the ceramic substrate 4 are enclosed in a housing. The shell comprises a heat sink at the bottom, a light window for light emitted by the laser, an upper cover and a side wall. One of the side walls is a ceramic side wall 5. The laser 3 is fixed on the ceramic substrate 4 and is electrically connected with the ceramic substrate 4; the laser 3 is electrically connected to the ceramic case 5 from the ceramic substrate 4 by gold wires, and the ceramic case 5 is electrically connected to the hard circuit board 7 by the flexible board 6. In the optical module, a high-frequency signal needs to go from a driver 8 to a hard circuit board 7, through a soft board 6 to a ceramic shell 5, through a gold wire, to a ceramic substrate 4, and then to a laser 3. The entire link has many connection points which are prone to reflect high speed signals and degrade signal quality. Moreover, such a design is relatively expensive and difficult to control for making ultra-high speed (e.g., 50Gb/s) signals.
As shown in fig. 2, in the case of a non-ceramic case hermetically sealed optical module, a high-speed signal is directly connected to a ceramic substrate 12 by gold wires from a driver 10 through a hard circuit board 11. If the ceramic substrate 12 is close to the hard circuit board 11, the length of the gold wire can be made short, so that the signal quality is good. However, due to the processing technology of the rigid circuit board 11, the distance between the metal wires of the rigid circuit board 11 and the board edge generally needs to be 8 mils. In addition, if the refrigerator 13 is too close to the rigid circuit board 11, the efficiency of the refrigerator 13 may be low due to the thermal conduction of the rigid circuit board 11. It is thus necessary to control the distance of the refrigerator 13 to the board edge of the rigid circuit board 11. This in turn causes the wire bond to be long, which affects the impedance of the high frequency signal and ultimately degrades the signal. In addition, the hard circuit board 11 is thick, so the coefficient of thermal expansion is high, and deformation due to thermal expansion is large throughout the thickness of the hard circuit board 11, resulting in a failure of the hermetic seal.

The insulating plate 34 is generally made of a nonconductive insulating material such as ceramic or glass.
The second plate 28 is attached to the first plate 26, and the second plate 28 is typically pressed together with the first plate 26. In the present embodiment, the second plate 28 extends into the sealing shell 20 and is electrically connected to the optoelectronic device 22; since the second plate 28 is only a part of the circuit board, the second plate 28 is generally about 0.1mm thick, thin, small in strain, and small in expansion deformation, so that the optical module has good air tightness. In addition, the hermetic package provided by the preferred embodiment can make the upper and lower portions of the second board 28 located at the opening 30 between the carrier 32 and the insulating board 34 not need to be additionally provided with circuit boards, so that the structure is simple, the cost is low, and meanwhile, the transmission quality of high-speed signals is ensured.

Thus, the circuit board and the sealing case 20 are fixed together, which not only facilitates the assembly as a whole, but also facilitates the fixation of the circuit board.
In the preferred embodiment, the package substrate 33 is a heat sink. Preferably, at least a portion of the first plate 26 is in contact with the projection 36 of the package substrate 33. The upper surface of the first plate 26 is connected to the lower surface of the second plate 28, and a portion of the lower surface of the first plate 26 is in contact with the projection 36 of the package substrate 33, or the entire lower surface of the first plate 26 is in contact with the projection 36 of the package substrate 33. Thereby dissipating heat generated from the circuit board through the package substrate 33.
The optoelectronic assembly 22 includes a carrier substrate 46 disposed within the hermetic shell 20, an optical/electrical component 48 disposed on the carrier substrate 46, the optical/electrical component 48 being electrically connected to the high speed link layer 44 of the second board 28. Specifically, the carrier substrate 46 is provided with a circuit layer 50, and the optical/electrical component is electrically connected to the high-speed link layer 44 of the second board 28 through the circuit layer 50 on the carrier substrate 46. In this embodiment, the carrier substrate 46 is made of ceramic, and the optical/electrical element 48 is soldered on the carrier substrate 46. The circuit layer 50 on the carrier substrate 46 is gold-wired to the high-speed link layer 44, and similarly, the circuit layer 50 on the carrier substrate 46 is gold-wired to the optical/electrical components 48. The optical/electrical element 48 may be a laser or a photodetector.
In this embodiment, the circuit layer 50 and the high-speed link layer 44 are located on the same side of the optical/electrical component 48, so that the length of the gold wire is the shortest, the impedance on the link is reduced, and the high-speed transmission performance is better. Of course, the line layer 50 and the high speed link layer 44 may be disposed on different sides of the optical/electrical component 48.
The line layer 50 and the high speed link layer 44 are located on the same line. Further, the length of the gold wire between the line layer 50 and the high-speed link layer 44 is shorter, and the high-speed transmission performance is better. Further, the line layer 50, the high-speed link layer 44, and the optical/electrical components 48 may be arranged to be located on the same straight line.
The optical module further comprises a driver 24, the driver 24 being located on a second plate 28 outside the sealed housing 20, the driver 24 driving the laser or photodetector through a line on the second plate 26. Specifically, the driver 24 is disposed on the upper surface of the second board 28 and electrically connected to the second board 28, the high-speed link layer 44 is disposed at an interval with the driver 24, and the high-speed link layer 44 is connected to the driver 24 through a gold wire. In this embodiment, the driver 24 is disposed on the second board 28 and electrically connected to the second board 28, so that the driver 24 is directly connected to the optoelectronic device 22 through the second board 28, and reflection of the link is reduced, thereby achieving better high-speed transmission performance. In addition, the entire high speed link from the driver 24 to the opto-electronic component 22 is free of conventional ceramic case solder joints, making it very easy to control the impedance on the link, thereby making it easier to achieve ultra high speed transmission.
The light module further comprises a refrigerator 38 arranged between the carrier substrate 46 and the package substrate 33. Wherein the refrigerator 38 is spaced from both the carrier 32 and the side window 42. In this embodiment, the first plate 26 is located outside the sealed housing 20, and the second plate 28 extends into the sealed housing 20 to electrically connect with the optoelectronic device 22, thereby increasing the gap between the first plate 26 and the refrigerator 38, improving the efficiency of the refrigerator 38, and reducing power consumption.
In this embodiment, the carrier substrate 46 is disposed on the refrigerator 38, and specifically, the carrier substrate 46 and the package substrate 33 are disposed on two opposite sides of the refrigerator 38. The cooler 38 is soldered to the package substrate 33, and heat of the optical/electrical element 48 is first transferred to the cooler 38 and then to the package substrate 33 through the cooler 38, thereby dissipating heat generated by the optical/electrical element 48.
The second plate 28 is in contact with the refrigerator 38, and in particular, the second plate 28 is attached to a surface of the refrigerator 38, wherein the second plate 28 and the carrier substrate 46 are disposed on the same surface of the refrigerator 38. Therefore, the structure of the optical module is simple, and the wire bonding length between the second plate 28 and the bearing substrate 46 is short. In this embodiment, the heat of the second board 28 is transferred to the refrigerator 38, and then transferred to the package substrate 33 through the refrigerator 38, so that the heat generated by the second board 28 is dissipated through the package substrate 33, and the heat dissipation performance of the optical module is further improved.

Also, the second board 52 may be provided as a flexible circuit board or a hard circuit board, and the first board 62 is a hard circuit board.
In this embodiment, the optical module further includes a refrigerator 60, the carrier substrate 58 is disposed on the refrigerator 60, the second board 52 includes a first portion 64 at least partially disposed on the first board 62 and a second portion 66 at least partially disposed above the refrigerator 60, the high-speed link layer 56 extends from the first portion 64 to the second portion 66, a width of the first portion 64 is greater than a width of the second portion 66, and the first portion 64 and the second portion 66 form a notch portion 68, and the notch 68 is located above the carrier 69. That is, the intersection of the first portion 64 and the second portion 66 forms a step difference surface that is located above the carrier 69. Specifically, the high-speed link layer 56 extends in a straight line from the first portion 64 to the second portion 66. The second portion 66 is partially disposed on the carrier substrate 58, and one end of the high-speed link layer 56 is electrically connected to the optical/electrical component 54, and the other end of the high-speed link layer 56 is electrically connected to the driver 70. In this embodiment, the number of electrically connected connection points and solder joints is reduced, so that high-speed transmission performance is better.
In this embodiment, the first portion 64 is remote from the refrigerator 60. Further, the first portion 64 is located outside the sealed envelope, so that only the second portion 66 having a narrower width extends into the sealed envelope, resulting in less alteration of the thermal stress profile and thus better hermeticity of the sealed envelope. Of course, the first portion 64 may also extend into the receiving housing, with a small section of the first portion 64 being connected to the carrier substrate 58, and in particular being attached to the carrier substrate 58.
As shown in fig. 6, the third embodiment of the present invention only describes the differences between this embodiment and the first embodiment in detail, and the same parts are not described in detail.

Specifically, the second plate 72 is attached to a carrier 76.
