Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve yield by mounting a meshy or striped cover consisting of a material conformable to a solder material to a substrate so as to cover a section fixed by the solder material. CONSTITUTION:A semiconductor laser 11 is fused and fastened to a substrate 13. An optical fiber 12, the periphery thereof is coated previously with a metal, is passed into a meshy or striped cover 14 and faced oppositely to the outgoing end of the semiconductor laser 11, and the meshy or striped cover 14 is made of a material conformable to a solder material, and fitted to the substrate 13. A light-receiving element 16 for monitoring an optical output is arranged behind the semiconductor laser 11, and fused to a thermo-electric-cooler 18, and these elements are mounted to a dual-in-line package 19. The meshy or striped cover composed of the material conformable to the solder material is set up, thus remarkably reducing movement in the case when the solder material is cured at a low temperature and fixed in the previously finely adjusted optical fiber, then improving yield.

Due to the surface tension of the solder material, a phenomenon occurs in which the solder material is pulled in the direction of movement of the soldering iron, and as a result, the optical fiber, which has been adjusted in advance to the optimum position relative to the optical semiconductor element, moves slightly. I found out that it does. This minute movement brings about particularly bad results in optical semiconductor devices that couple with a semiconductor laser in a single-axis mode 7 eye per'l, and has the disadvantage that a predetermined coupling efficiency cannot be obtained and at the same time the reliability of the fabricated semiconductor device is low. It had

Optical coupling to optical fiber 12 is maximized. At this time, if the optical fiber 12 is a single-axis mode fiber,
The adjustment range in the plane perpendicular to the optical axis is extremely narrow and needs to be within the normal optimum value of about ±1 μm. This delicate adjustment must be maintained even when the solder material 15 is cured at a low temperature by keeping the soldering iron 22'% away from the solder material 15.

According to the conventional configuration, since the optical fiber 12 is moved away from the soldering iron 22Y where the soldering material 15 is melted because the covering 53 does not have the mesh-like or striped covering 14, the soldering material 15
It has been found that the solder material 15 is pulled in the moving direction of the soldering iron 22 due to the surface tension of the soldering iron 22, and this force causes the optical fiber 12, which has been finely adjusted in advance, to move slightly in the same direction.

In the structure 8 according to the present invention, since the mesh-like or striped cover 14 made of a material that is easily compatible with the solder material is attached to the molten solder material 15, the soldering iron 22 can be moved upwardly. The force that pulls the material 15 is alleviated by modifying the cover 14, and the amount of movement of the optical fiber 12 is significantly reduced, and the yield of this process is about 70%, compared to the conventional method.

It has the effect of significantly reducing the amount of movement of the adjacent material to be cured and fixed, and making it possible to approximately double the yield in this process compared to the conventional method.
