Description

雷射封裝結構Laser package structure

本發明係關於一種雷射封裝結構,其藉由光感元件監控發光元件的光線數值,進而依據光線的數值控制發光元件的光線強度。 The invention relates to a laser packaging structure, which monitors the light value of a light-emitting element through a light-sensing element, and then controls the light intensity of the light-emitting element according to the light value.

雷射二極體根據其光學共振腔的不同可分為兩類,一類為側射型雷射,另一類為面射型雷射,而面射型雷射又稱為垂直腔面發射雷射器(Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser,簡稱VCSEL),也可以稱為垂直共振腔面射型雷射,其係為一種半導體,該雷射垂直於頂面射出,其共振腔與光子在共振腔來回共振所需之鏡面不是由製程形成之自然晶格斷裂面,而是在元件結構磊晶成長時就已形成,一般面射型雷射可用於光纖通訊、驗鈔設備以及醫療雷射等,光纖通訊之面射型雷射其雷射為圓形光型、發散角小,因此用在光纖耦合上容易對準,可以節省許多光纖對準的封裝成本,且在傳輸上可進行短距離大量資訊傳輸,驗鈔設備上的面射型雷射其鈔票具有紅外線吸收油墨,利用波長為850奈米(nm)的面射型雷射照射後,鈔票上會出現圖形,即可辨識出 真偽鈔,而醫療雷射係藉由波長為850奈米(nm)的面射型雷射照射,由於光源集中、輸出功率高,因此可以深入皮膚深層,作為醫學美容儀器元件使用。 Laser diodes can be divided into two types according to their different optical resonant cavities, one is a side-emitting laser, and the other is a surface-emitting laser, and a surface-emitting laser is also called a vertical cavity surface-emitting laser. (Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser, VCSEL for short), which can also be called a vertical cavity surface-emission laser, is a semiconductor that emits perpendicular to the top surface, and its resonant cavity and photons are in the resonant cavity The mirror surface required for back and forth resonance is not a natural lattice fracture surface formed by the process, but has been formed when the element structure is epitaxially grown. Generally surface-emitting lasers can be used for optical fiber communication, banknote detection equipment, and medical lasers. The surface-emitting laser of optical fiber communication has a circular laser type and a small divergence angle, so it is easy to align on the fiber coupling, which can save a lot of packaging costs for fiber alignment, and it can perform a large number of short distances on transmission. Information transmission. Surface-emitting lasers on banknote detection equipment have banknotes with infrared absorbing ink. After being illuminated by surface-emitting lasers with a wavelength of 850 nanometers (nm), graphics will appear on the banknotes to identify them Genuine and fake banknotes, and medical lasers are irradiated with surface-emitting lasers with a wavelength of 850 nanometers (nm). Due to the concentrated light source and high output power, they can penetrate deep into the skin and be used as components of medical cosmetic equipment.

然而,面射型雷射二極體封裝結構於使用過程中,其結構內發生異常,如果不即時處理,將會造成該面射型雷射二極體封裝結構之損壞,最常發生異常的地方係為該面射型雷射二極體封裝結構之擴散片,如果擴散片於該面射型雷射二極體封裝結構發光過程中脫落或是毀損,就會造成該面射型雷射二極體封裝結構的損壞,以及習知技術為了保護擴散片,其會將面射型雷射二極體封裝結構上之承載片上設置一凹槽,並讓該擴散片設置於承載片之該凹槽內,使得擴散片之周圍能夠被承載片保護,但此種結構會無法有效地保護擴散片,其只能保護到擴散片之側邊,且擴散片之相對於雷射發光元件之另一面也會完全曝入在外,以及習知技術之擴散片必須準確地吻合承載片上之該凹槽的尺寸,如此,其將會大幅地增加製造成本以及加工時間。 However, during the use of the surface-emitting laser diode packaging structure, an abnormality occurs in its structure. If it is not processed immediately, the surface-emitting laser diode packaging structure will be damaged, and the most common abnormality will occur. The area is the diffuser of the surface-emitting laser diode packaging structure. If the diffuser sheet falls off or is damaged during the light-emitting process of the surface-emitting laser diode packaging structure, the surface-emitting laser will cause the surface-emitting laser. Damage to the diode packaging structure, and conventional technology to protect the diffusion sheet, it will set a groove on the carrier sheet of the surface-emitting laser diode packaging structure, and let the diffusion sheet be placed on the carrier sheet. Inside the groove, the periphery of the diffusion sheet can be protected by the carrier sheet, but this structure cannot effectively protect the diffusion sheet, it can only protect the side of the diffusion sheet, and the diffusion sheet is different from the laser light emitting element. One side will also be completely exposed, and the diffusion sheet of the conventional technology must accurately match the size of the groove on the carrier sheet. In this way, it will greatly increase the manufacturing cost and processing time.

綜上所述之習用面射型雷射二極體封裝結構內,有許多未盡完善的結構,因此本發明人經過長期的研究及創新,發明出一種雷射封裝結構,其係於一第一基板上分別設置一雷射發光元件以及一光感元件,其中該光感元件係設置於該雷射發光元件一側,且於該雷射發光元件以及該光感元件之外側設置承載層,該承載層上設置一第二基板,一擴散片相對於該雷射發光元件設置 於該第二基板下,當該雷射發光元件發出之光線通過該擴散片時,會有部分之光線被該擴散片反射,而該光感元件將偵測被反射光線之強度,當反射光線之強度大於或低於一標準值時,則該光感元件將判別該擴散片係毀損或是從承載層上脫落,進而傳送一訊號至一控制裝置,使該控制裝置控制該雷射發光元件發出光線之強度。 In summary, there are many incomplete structures in the conventional surface-emitting laser diode packaging structure.
