    Abstract: A driver circuit may include an optical emitter, a capacitive element, and an inductive element. The driver circuit may include a first switch that, in a closed state, is to cause charging of the inductive element, and when transitioning from the closed state to an open state is to cause discharging of the inductive element to charge the capacitive element. The driver circuit may include a second switch that in a closed state is to cause discharging of the capacitive element to provide an electrical pulse to the optical emitter. The driver circuit may include a signal generator configured to generate a first signal for controlling the open state and the closed state of the first switch, and a pulse shortening element configured to shorten a pulse width of the first signal to generate a second signal for controlling the open state and the closed state of the second switch.

    Abstract: A substrate may include a thermally conductive metal core having a top side and a bottom side, a first dielectric coating on the top side of the metal core, a second dielectric coating on the bottom side of the metal core, a first metal circuit layer formed above the first dielectric coating, and a second metal circuit layer formed under the second dielectric coating. In some implementations, the first dielectric coating and the second dielectric coating have thicknesses below sixty micrometers and respective thermal resistances under fifteen degrees Celsius per watt. In some implementations, one or more electrical currents flowing vertically across a dielectric coating have a low parasitic inductance based on the thickness of the dielectric coating, and the metal core may dissipate heat flowing across the dielectric coating and into the metal core.

    Abstract: A die attachment material may include an ultra-violet (UV) curable resin and silver particles to attach a chip to a submount, where the silver particles are positioned within the UV curable resin. A method may include heating the die attachment material to obtain the UV curable resin on sintered silver particles, where at least a portion of the die attachment material is position between a chip and a submount. The method may further include irradiating, with UV light, the UV curable resin to obtain a polymer on the sintered silver particles. The polymer may form a layer on the sintered silver particles.

    Abstract: An electrical drive circuit may charge one or more inductive elements, where the electrical drive circuit includes the one or more inductive elements and a capacitive element in series between the one or more inductive elements and the optical load, and where the electrical drive circuit is connected to one or more sources. The electrical drive circuit may generate, after the charging and for a first time interval, a main electrical pulse. The electrical drive circuit may discharge, after the charging and for a second time interval, the one or more inductive elements to provide a compensation electrical pulse, where at least a portion of the second time interval overlaps with the first time interval. The electrical drive circuit may combine the main electrical pulse and the compensation electrical pulse into a combined electrical pulse. The electrical drive circuit may provide the combined electrical pulse to the optical load.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) package may include a substrate. The VCSEL package may include a VCSEL disposed on a surface of the substrate. The VCSEL package may include a VCSEL driver disposed on the surface of the substrate. The VCSEL package may include an embedded capacitor electrically connected to the VCSEL and the VCSEL driver. The embedded capacitor may be formed from a subset of layers of the substrate. The capacitor may be associated with a first capacitance that is different from a second capacitance of at least one other capacitor associated with the substrate.
