摘要:
A photodetector module including a support substrate having a main surface, an optical waveguide mounted on the support substrate and having an end face for emerging a light beam along a first optical path, and a photodetector mounted on the support substrate so that the light beam emerged from the end face of the optical waveguide is incident on the photodetector, the photodetector having a photodetecting portion responding to the light beam incident on the photodetector. The photodetector module further includes a first inclined surface formed on a substrate of the photodetector for refracting the light beam along the first optical path to a second optical path, and a second inclined surface for totally reflecting the light beam along the second optical path to a third optical path substantially perpendicular to the photodetecting portion.
摘要:
An optical transmission terminal device including a printed wiring board and an optical module mounted on the printed wiring board. The optical module includes an optical component mounting substrate, a photoelectric converter mounted on the substrate, a first optical fiber having one end optically coupled to the photoelectric converter, and a ferrule mounted on the substrate so as to partially project from the substrate. The other end portion of the first optical fiber is inserted and fixed in the ferrule. A wiring pattern formed on the printed wiring board and a feed electrode formed on the substrate are connected together by wire bonding. An optically coupled portion between the photoelectric converter and the first optical fiber and a connected portion between the wiring pattern and the feed electrode are commonly covered with a transparent resin. The optical transmission terminal device further includes an optical fiber connector housing mounted on the optical module for allowing connection of the first optical fiber to a second optical fiber.

An optical module including a substrate, an optical waveguide formed on the substrate, and an optical element mounted on the substrate so as to be optically coupled to an end of the optical waveguide, for performing conversion between light and electricity. The optical module further includes a transparent resin for covering at least an optical coupling portion between the optical waveguide and the optical element, and a thermoplastic resin for covering only the optical element and its periphery including the transparent resin to seal the optical element.
摘要:
An optical module including a substrate having a groove; an optical waveguide layer formed on the substrate, the optical waveguide layer including an optical waveguide core having first and second ends, the first end being aligned with the groove, and an optical waveguide cladding covering the optical waveguide core; a ferrule having a through hole; and an optical fiber inserted and fixed in the through hole. The ferrule has a flat cut portion for semicylindrically exposing a part of the optical fiber inserted and fixed in the through hole. The ferrule is fixed at the flat cut portion to the substrate so that the part of the optical fiber exposed to the flat cut portion is inserted into the groove of the substrate until one end of the optical fiber abuts against the first end of the optical waveguide core.

摘要:
An automatic analyzer uses probes for detecting liquid levels based on a capacitance detection method. Erroneous detection of liquid levels due to interference caused by the frequency difference of oscillators is reducted. When frequencies f1 and f2 of respective detector oscillators, which are originally equal to each other, are different by approximately several Hz from each other due to a manufacturing variation, oscillation waveforms are added to liquid level detection voltages, causing a premature determination that the probes have contacted the liquid surface before actual contact therewith. By setting the difference between the frequencies f1 and f2 of the detector oscillators to be in the range of several kHz, an oscillation waveform corresponding to the difference between the frequencies is added to the detection voltages, but the amplitude values of the high-frequency components are attenuated by high-frequency attenuators, thereby ensuring accuracy in the liquid level detection.
