Abstract:
An optical module includes a housing including an internal space that has an opening in a substrate mounting surface, an element mounting surface that forms a portion of an inner surface of the internal space, and a waveguide introduction opening that is formed in a side surface intersecting the substrate mounting surface and is opened to the opening of the substrate mounting surface and communicated with the internal space, an optical element that is mounted on the element mounting surface, and an electronic element that is mounted on the element mounting surface and is connected to the optical element. When the substrate mounting surface is mounted on a circuit substrate, an optical waveguide that protrudes from a surface of the circuit substrate is introduced into the internal space through the waveguide introduction opening.
Abstract:
A prism/lens array (25) in the present invention is a grass prism having an approximately 45 degrees tapered part. A plurality of lenses (31) are provided side by side on the front surface of the prism/lens array (25). A pair of protrusions (33) are formed on both sides of lenses (31) on the surface on which the lenses (31) are provided. The protrusions (33) are formed in the top-bottom direction of the prism/lens array (25) and roughly V-shaped cross sections. Grooves (35) are provided in an inside surface of a prism-securing part (19), in areas corresponding to the protrusions (33). The grooves (35) are shaped such that the protrusions (33) can fit into the grooves; for example, the grooves could have roughly V-shaped cross sections.
