Description
The present invention relates to an optoelectronic circuit board, and more particularly, to an optoelectronic circuit board and a photoelectric simultaneous communication system including a metal slot optical waveguide having a multilayer metal thin film and a dielectric inserted in the center thereof.
BACKGROUND ART Information processing technology between semiconductor chips or board-to-board using optical communication technology has been spotlighted because it can solve problems such as electromagnetic interference (EMI), impedance mismatch and signal skew of copper wiring. Accordingly, a photoelectric wiring module using optical wiring and electric wiring has been proposed as wiring of a printed circuit board. However, the dielectric optical waveguide used in the photoelectric wiring module has a disadvantage of high manufacturing cost.
Recently, a metal wire optical waveguide in which a metal wire is inserted into a dielectric material has been spotlighted as a technology that can replace a dielectric optical waveguide. However, the waveguide loss of the metal optical waveguide is much higher than that of the dielectric optical waveguide. In addition, it requires a very thin metal wire and the high resistance of the metal wire itself, it is difficult to send a high voltage power line or electrical signal at the same time with the optical signal.
The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, to provide an optical circuit board and a photoelectric simultaneous communication system comprising a metal slot optical waveguide capable of transmitting optical signals and electrical signals simultaneously using a metal thin film. There is a purpose.

According to a second embodiment of the present invention, a photoelectric simultaneous communication system according to the present invention includes a lower metal thin film, a dielectric formed on an upper portion of the lower metal thin film, an upper metal thin film formed on an upper portion of the dielectric, and An intermediate metal thin film forming an optical waveguide at a predetermined distance on the same plane in the dielectric, and electrical wiring formed on an upper portion of the upper metal thin film or on a lower portion of the lower metal thin film, wherein the electrical wiring is connected to the upper portion through a via. An optoelectronic circuit board connected to the metal thin film, the intermediate metal thin film, and the lower metal thin film to be energized; A connector unit for performing electrical communication through the electric wiring; And an optoelectronic device for performing optical communication through the optical waveguide.
As described above, according to the present invention, an optical circuit board and a photoelectric circuit communication system including a metal slot optical waveguide for transmitting an optical signal through a dielectric inserted into the metal thin film and transmitting an electrical signal through the metal thin film are provided. By doing so, there is an effect that the electrical signal and the optical signal can be sent simultaneously with little waveguide loss.

In the following description of the present invention, a detailed description of known functions and configurations incorporated herein will be omitted when it may make the subject matter of the present invention rather unclear.
1 is a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of an optical circuit board according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 1, an optoelectronic circuit board according to the present invention may be disposed on an intermediate metal
The metal
Dielectric 140 includes an optical polymer having flexibility. Therefore, the optoelectronic circuit board according to the present invention can be used for photoelectric communication between PCB boards requiring flexibility.
In addition, the metal thin film (110, 120, 130) is preferably formed to a thickness of 0.1 ~ 100 ㎛.
The intermediate metal
2 is a view showing a light guide mode of an optical circuit board according to a first embodiment of the present invention. In detail, (a) of FIG. 2 shows a pseudo TE mode for a 1310 nm wavelength, and FIG. 2 (b) shows a pseudo TM mode for a 1310 nm wavelength. At this time, the thickness of the metal thin film (110, 120, 130) is 14㎛, the height and width of the dielectric 140 located in the center is 50㎛ respectively.

In the optoelectronic circuit board according to the present invention, the intermediate metal
Thus, as shown in FIG. 2A, in the pseudo TE mode, the phase of the electric field changes at the edge of the dielectric 140 in the horizontal direction. This is a surface plasmon effect that is excited at the interface between the metal
In addition, as shown in FIG. 2B, in the pseudo TM mode, the phase of the electric field changes at the edge of the dielectric 140 in the vertical direction.
3 is a graph illustrating a simulation result of waveguide loss of an optical circuit board according to a first exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
In general, optical waveguides generate waveguide due to surface plasmon effects occurring at the metal thin film and dielectric interfaces.
Referring to FIG. 3, it can be seen that the waveguide loss decreases as the width and length of the dielectric material increase. That is, when the width and length of the dielectric material are 50 µm or more, waveguide loss of 1 db / cm or less is shown.
3, it can be seen that the waveguide loss decreases as the wavelength of the light wave becomes shorter. That is, although there is no noticeable difference depending on the polarization, the pseudo TM mode shows a slightly higher waveguide loss than the pseudo TE mode.
In contrast, the dependence of the waveguide loss on the thickness of the metal thin film is not large.
