A hair dryer includes a motor and a fan to generate an air current within a housing, and a heater for selectively supplying heat into air introduced from the outside of the housing by the fan. A discharge nozzle is disposed on one end of the housing. A coanda surface is disposed on the discharge nozzle. Thus, the air passing through the housing flows along the coanda surface to suction air outside the discharge nozzle into a central passage part of the discharge nozzle, thereby mixing the suctioned air with the air passing through the housing. The air mixed within the central passage part is discharged through a discharge hole of the discharge nozzle. Since the air passing on the coanda surface suctions the air outside the discharge nozzle, the motor may be reduced in capacity. Also, an electromagnetic shielding effect may be significantly improved.

An optical subassembly includes a high speed ceramic substrate having cavity containing an array of photodetectors, and a glass or silicon window for covering the cavity and forming a hermetic seal. A retainer is attached to the window for direct or indirect attachment to a fiber. The hermetic seal protects the device from moisture and other environmental conditions.
