In conjunction with the present invention, term " circuit board " refers to multilayer circuit board, and at least two conductive layers (patterned usually), electrically conductive signal layer are wherein arranged.Composition is meant that conductive layer is not a homogeneous, but is made of conductive pattern, and this conductive pattern is to be formed by the conductor that is electrically insulated from each other.Conductor is some conductive materials, metal typically, and copper normally.Conductive layer is separated each other by insulation course.The conductor or the insulation course of at least one circuit board comprise optical bus.
Term " optical bus " refers to a groove, can be along this groove with the light signal guiding parts, or leave parts.Can fill optical bus with the suitable material that forms light path.The material that is suitable for filling has for example various polymkeric substance or glass-like materials.
In the open US2003/0006068 of for example patented claim, disclosed the structure of optical bus.
Optoelectronic components is partially submerged into board structure of circuit wherein at least, preferably only on the embedded location of parts insulating material is arranged.Can use laser drill method or other similar boring method to form the depression of the insert depth of wanting like this on the embedded location of parts, this depression ends at metal level.Also can use several different methods, for example, form initial depression with machining earlier and finish with method for drilling holes again.
With with circuit board on the mode that intersects of optical bus be formed for the depression of parts.Term " intersect " be meant the depression and optical bus between formed common interface, transfer to depression along the signal that optical bus advances from optical bus by it, or correspondingly, light signal is transferred to along optical bus from depression and is advanced.In this article, such interface is called intersection surface.This intersection surface is preferably cut off optical bus fully, and preferably meets at right angles with direction of motion along optical bus basically.Under vantage, this intersection surface corresponds essentially to the xsect at the optical bus of optical bus end.Can use any suitable method to make actual intersection surface, but in manufacturing technology, the method for the simplest manufacturing intersection surface is: during fabrication, to remove the material of optical bus in the end of bus.In a plurality of embodiment, it is to make together in conjunction with depression to carry out that described material is removed.
When parts are embedded in the depression, use some suitable insulation materials partly or wholly to fill remaining space on every side.Use the light active region of transparent insulation material filling component and the depression between the optical bus end, preferably use the material identical materials that comprises with optical bus.Can use the partially or completely space of other direction around the filling component of identical or other insulating material.At the manufacture view of circuit board, if insulating material is and the identical transparent material of material in the optical bus will be simpler.In certain embodiments, can stay at least a portion depression is not filled.
Parts are placed in the depression, make the intersection surface of light active region adjacent optical bus of described parts.Like this, notion " vicinity " also comprises special circumstances, wherein the light active region of the intersecting plane contact component of optical bus.In operation, notion " vicinity " is meant signal that permission advances along optical bus from the optical bus to the intersection surface and pass possible medium to the parts active region, or oppositely opposite, fully effectively the distance and the position of transfer.In the embodiment of reality, distance is typically in the scope of 0-2 millimeter and preferably in the scope of 100-500 micron between the surface of light active region and the intersection surface of optical bus.
