Abstract:
Optical modules are made using customizable spacers to reduce variations in the focal lengths of the optical channels, to reduce the occurrence of tilt of the optical channels, and/or prevent adhesive from migrating to active portions of an image sensor.
Abstract:
A device comprises at least one optics member (O) comprising at least one transparent portion (t) and at least one blocking portion (b). The at least one transparent portion (t) is made of one or more materials substantially transparent for light of at least a specific spectral range, referred to as transparent materials, and the at least one blocking portion (b) is made of one or more materials substantially non-transparent for light of the specific spectral range, referred to as non-transparent materials. The transparent portion (t) comprises at least one passive optical component (L). The at least one passive optical component (L) comprises a transparent element (6) having two opposing approximately flat surfaces substantially perpendicular to a vertical direction in a distance approximately equal to a thickness of the at least one blocking portion (b) measured along the vertical direction, and, attached to the transparent element (6), at least one optical structure (5).

Abstract:
The present disclosure describes wafer-level processes for fabricating optoelectronic device subassemblies that can be mounted, for example, to a circuit substrate, such as a flexible cable or printed circuit board, and integrated into optoelectronic modules that include one or more optical subassemblies stacked over the optoelectronic device subassembly. The optoelectronic device subassembly can be mounted onto the circuit substrate using solder reflow technology even if the optical subassemblies are composed of materials that are not reflow compatible.
Abstract:
Molded circuit substrates include a conductive layer surrounded by an insulating sidewall. The insulating sidewall further provides a structural component for an electronic module into which the molded circuit substrate is incorporated. Accordingly, the molded circuit substrates can permit better performance, reduce electronic module thickness, and reduce fabrication costs. Methods for fabricating molded circuit substrates can facilitate precise positioning of insulating sidewalls, insulating partitions, electrical contacts and other components.

Abstract:
An electrical-contact assembly includes electrical contacts with first and second electrical-contact surfaces on opposing sides of the assembly. The electrical-contact assembly is manufactured by a structurable process (e.g., photo-structurable process) and by electroplating. The first and second electrical-contact surfaces can be positioned with respect to each other with an accuracy, for example, of at least 5 microns. Further, the thickness of the electrical-contact assembly can be at most 17 microns in some cases. The electrical-contact assembly can include integrated active optoelectronic elements, overmolds, optical elements and non-transparent walls.

Abstract:
Optical stack assemblies and fabrication techniques thereof. The optical stack assembly includes first and second sub-assemblies, each of which include a substrate and a sub-structure fixed to the respective substrate. Each sub-structures includes a respective first edge feature and a respective second edge feature that project away from the substrate of that sub-structure, each second edge feature being disposed laterally closer to an outer periphery of the respective sub-structure than the first edge feature of the same sub-structure. The first edge feature of the first sub-structure is in direct contact with the first edge feature of the second sub¬structure, while the second edge feature of the first sub-structure and the second edge feature of the second sub-structure are attached to one another by adhesive. At least one of the first or second sub-structures includes an optical element on a same side of the sub-structure as the first and second edge features of that sub-structure. The optical element stack assembly further includes a spacer laterally surrounding, and moulded to, the first and second sub-assemblies.
