Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of optoelectronic hybrid integrated packaging, and in particular to a co-sealing device of an electro-optical modulation chip and a control chip coupled with an optical end face. Background Art

[0002] As electronic information systems develop towards high integration, high frequency and broadband, microwave photonics technology plays an increasingly important role in them due to its high frequency and broadband performance. Electro-optical modulators are devices that realize electro-optical conversion and are an important link between microwaves and light waves. Therefore, it is particularly important to propose a highly integrated electro-optical modulator that is compatible with the interface of highly integrated microwave circuits. At present, in order to avoid the size limitation of RF connectors, highly integrated microwave circuits often adopt the form of integrated packaging by mounting microwave components on printed circuit boards, thereby further improving the integration of microwave systems.

[0003] However, the current electro-optic modulator is large in size and is not easy to be co-packaged with microwave devices. There are two main reasons: on the one hand, the bias operating point of the electro-optic modulator will drift slowly with changes in environmental factors such as temperature, so an external control loop is required for closed-loop control. The control loop includes discrete devices such as optical beam splitters, monitoring photodetectors, and control circuits. These discrete devices have their own independent packages, resulting in a large volume of the entire control loop; on the other hand, the RF interface of the electro-optic modulator is an SMA, SMP, SSMP interface, etc. These interfaces are large in size. When connected to printed circuit boards, corresponding RF connectors are required for conversion, which will result in a large size of the entire microwave system. In addition, the height of commonly used integrated microwave devices is about 1 cm. If the electro-optic modulator and the microwave device are co-packaged in a vertically adapted design, the optical device needs to reduce the height of the entire optoelectronic module. Co-packaging the electro-optic modulation chip and the bias control chip is an effective means to reduce the size of the electro-optic modulator, but direct co-packaging also has the problem of heat dissipation of the control chip. Therefore, it is particularly important to propose a co-sealed device for an electro-optical modulation chip and a control chip that can be directly soldered to a printed circuit board, has a heat dissipation channel, and is highly compatible with microwave devices.
