[0066] Some embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments provided in the present disclosure are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0067] Unless the context requires otherwise, throughout the specification and claims, the term "including" is to be interpreted as open and inclusive, that is, "including, but not limited to"; the terms "first" and "second" are not to be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or indicating an upper limit on quantity; the term "plurality" means two or more; the term "connected" is to be understood in a broad sense, for example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection, and can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium; the use of the terms "suitable for" or "configured to" means open and inclusive language, which does not exclude equipment that is suitable for or configured to perform additional tasks or steps; terms such as "parallel", "perpendicular", "same", "consistent", "level" and so on are not limited to absolute mathematical theoretical relationships, but also include acceptable error ranges generated in practice, and also include differences based on the same design concept but due to manufacturing reasons.
[0068] In optical communications, information is transferred between information processing devices by loading it onto light and leveraging its propagation speed. This information-carrying light is called an optical signal. Transmitting optical signals through optical information transmission equipment reduces optical power loss, enabling long-distance transmission. Furthermore, optical information transmission equipment, such as optical fiber, is less expensive than electrical information transmission equipment, such as copper wire. Therefore, optical communications technology enables high-speed, long-distance, and low-cost information transmission.
[0069] Information processing equipment typically includes optical network units (ONUs), gateways, routers, switches, mobile phones, computers, servers, tablets, and televisions. Optical information transmission equipment typically includes optical fibers and optical waveguides. Information processing equipment can identify and process electrical signals, while optical communication technology uses optical signals for transmission, requiring optical modules to convert optical and electrical signals.
[0070] Optical modules can enable mutual conversion between optical and electrical signals between information processing equipment and optical information transmission equipment. In some embodiments, at least one of the optical signal input or output ends of the optical module is connected to an optical fiber, and at least one of the electrical signal input or output ends of the optical module is connected to an optical network terminal. A first optical signal from the optical fiber is transmitted to the optical module, which converts the first optical signal into a first electrical signal and transmits the first electrical signal to the optical network terminal. A second electrical signal from the optical network terminal is transmitted to the optical module, which converts the second electrical signal into a second optical signal and transmits the second optical signal to the optical fiber.
[0071] Because multiple information processing devices can transmit information via electrical signals, at least one of the multiple information processing devices needs to be directly connected to the optical module, rather than all of them. Here, the information processing device directly connected to the optical module is also referred to as the optical module's host computer. Furthermore, the optical signal input or output end of an optical module is referred to as an optical port, while the electrical signal input or output end of an optical module is referred to as an electrical port.
[0072] Figure 1 is a partial structural diagram of an optical communication system according to some embodiments. As shown in Figure 1, the optical communication system primarily includes a remote information processing device 1000, a local information processing device 2000, an optical module host computer 100, an optical module 200, an optical fiber 101, and a network cable 103. The optical fiber 101 is an optical information transmission device, and the network cable 103 is an electrical information transmission device.
[0073] In some embodiments, one end of the optical fiber 101 extends toward the remote information processing device 1000, and the other end of the optical fiber 101 is connected to the optical module 200 through the optical port of the optical module 200. The optical signal can undergo total reflection in the optical fiber 101, and the propagation of the optical signal in the direction of total reflection can almost maintain the original optical power. The optical signal undergoes multiple total reflections in the optical fiber 101 to transmit the optical signal from the remote information processing device 1000 to the optical module 200, or transmit the optical signal from the optical module 200 to the remote information processing device 1000, thereby achieving long-distance information transmission with low power loss.
[0074] The optical communication system includes one or more optical fibers 101. In some embodiments, the optical fibers 101 and the optical module 200 are detachably connected; in some embodiments, the optical fibers 101 and the optical module 200 are non-detachably connected.
[0075] The host computer 100 is configured to provide a data signal to the optical module 200 , or receive a data signal from the optical module 200 , or monitor or control the working state of the optical module 200 .
[0076] The host computer 100 includes a housing for accommodating the optical module 200 and an optical module interface 102 provided on the housing. The optical module 200 is inserted into the housing through the optical module interface 102 to establish a unidirectional or bidirectional electrical signal connection between the host computer 100 and the optical module 200.
[0077] The host computer 100 also includes an external electrical interface that can be connected to an electrical signal network. In some embodiments, the external electrical interface includes a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface or a network cable interface 104. The network cable interface 104 is configured to connect to the network cable 103 to establish a unidirectional or bidirectional electrical signal connection between the host computer 100 and the network cable 103.
[0078] One end of the network cable 103 is connected to the local information processing device 2000, and the other end of the network cable 103 is connected to the host computer 100, so that an electrical signal connection is established between the local information processing device 2000 and the host computer 100 via the network cable 103. In some embodiments, a third electrical signal emitted by the local information processing device 2000 is transmitted to the host computer 100 via the network cable 103. The host computer 100 generates a second electrical signal based on the third electrical signal. The second electrical signal from the host computer 100 is transmitted to the optical module 200. The optical module 200 converts the second electrical signal into a second optical signal and transmits the second optical signal to the optical fiber 101. The second optical signal is transmitted to the remote information processing device 1000 via the optical fiber 101.
[0079] In some embodiments, a first optical signal from a remote information processing device 1000 propagates through an optical fiber 101, and the first optical signal from the optical fiber 101 is transmitted to the optical module 200. The optical module 200 converts the first optical signal into a first electrical signal. The optical module 200 transmits the first electrical signal to the host computer 100. The host computer 100 generates a fourth electrical signal based on the first electrical signal and transmits the fourth electrical signal to the local information processing device 2000.
[0080] In some embodiments, the optical module is a tool for converting optical signals into electrical signals. During the conversion between optical signals and electrical signals, the information does not change, but the encoding or decoding method of the information changes.
[0081] In addition to the optical network terminal, the host computer 100 also includes an optical line terminal (OLT), an optical network device (ONT) or a data center server.
[0082] Figure 2 is a partial structural diagram of a host computer according to some embodiments. To clearly illustrate the connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100, Figure 2 only shows the structure of the host computer 100 related to the optical module 200. As shown in Figure 2, in some embodiments, the host computer 100 further includes a PCB circuit board 105 disposed within the receiving cavity, and a cage 106 disposed on the surface of the PCB circuit board 105; the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106 and is fixed by the cage 106;
[0083] In some embodiments, a heat sink 107 is provided on the cage 106 to dissipate heat for the optical module; in some embodiments, the heat sink 107 has a protruding structure such as fins to increase the heat dissipation area.
[0084] In some embodiments, an electrical connector is disposed inside the cage 106 , and the electrical connector is configured to connect to an electrical port of the optical module 200 .
[0085] In some embodiments, the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106 of the host computer 100 , and the cage 106 fixes the optical module 200 . The heat generated by the optical module 200 is transferred to the cage 106 and then diffused through the heat sink 107 .
[0086] In some embodiments, the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106 of the host computer 100 , and the electrical port of the optical module 200 is connected to the electrical connector inside the cage 106 , thereby establishing an electrical signal connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer 100 .
[0087] In some embodiments, the optical port of the optical module 200 is connected to the optical fiber 101 , so that the optical module 200 establishes an optical signal connection with the optical fiber 101 .
[0088] Figure 3 is a structural diagram of an optical module according to some embodiments, and Figure 4 is an exploded view of an optical module according to some embodiments. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, in some embodiments, optical module 200 includes a housing, which includes an upper housing 201 and a lower housing 202. Upper housing 201 covers lower housing 202, forming two openings 204 and 205, one of which is an electrical port and the other is an optical port. In some embodiments, the housing forms a single opening that serves as both an electrical port and an optical port.
[0089] In some embodiments, the upper shell 201 and the lower shell 202 are made of metal materials, which facilitates electromagnetic shielding and heat dissipation.
[0090] The upper shell 201 and the lower shell 202 are combined to facilitate the installation of the circuit board 300, the light emitting component 400, the light receiving component 500, etc. into the above shell. The upper shell 201 and the lower shell 202 can encapsulate and protect the above components.
[0091] The direction of the line connecting the two openings 203 and 204 can be aligned with or inconsistent with the length of the optical module 200. For example, the opening 203 is located at the end of the optical module 200 (the right end in FIG3 ), and the opening 204 is also located at the end of the optical module 200 (the left end in FIG3 ). Alternatively, the opening 203 is located at the end of the optical module 200, and the opening 204 is located at the side of the optical module 200.
[0092] In some embodiments, the lower shell 202 includes a base plate 2021 and two lower side plates 2022 located on both sides of the base plate 2021 and arranged perpendicular to the base plate 2021; the upper shell 201 includes a cover plate 2011, and the cover plate 2011 covers the two lower side plates 2022 of the lower shell 202 to form the above-mentioned shell.
[0093] In some embodiments, the lower shell 202 includes a base plate 2021 and two lower side plates 2022 located on both sides of the base plate 2021 and arranged perpendicularly to the base plate 2021; the upper shell 201 includes a cover plate 2011 and two upper side plates located on both sides of the cover plate 2011 and arranged perpendicularly to the cover plate 2011. The two upper side plates are combined with the two lower side plates 2022 to achieve the upper shell 201 covering the lower shell 202.
[0094] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, in some embodiments, the optical module includes a circuit board 300 disposed in a housing. The circuit board 300 includes circuit traces, electronic components, and chips. The electronic components and chips are connected according to the circuit design through the circuit traces to achieve functions such as power supply, electrical signal transmission, and grounding. The electronic components may include, for example, capacitors, resistors, transistors, and metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). The chips may include a microcontroller unit (MCU), a laser driver chip, a transimpedance amplifier (TIA), a limiting amplifier (LA), a clock and data recovery chip (CDR), a power management chip, and a digital signal processing (DSP) chip.
[0095] In some embodiments, the circuit board may include a rigid circuit board. Due to its relatively hard material, the rigid circuit board can also achieve a load-bearing function. For example, the rigid circuit board can stably carry the above-mentioned electronic components and chips; the rigid circuit board can also be inserted into the electrical connector in the cage 106 of the host computer 100.
[0096] In some embodiments, the circuit board may further include a flexible circuit board, which may be used independently or in conjunction with a rigid circuit board.
[0097] In some embodiments, a gold finger is formed on the surface of the end portion of the circuit board 300. The gold finger is composed of a plurality of independent pins.
[0098] In some embodiments, the gold finger 310 is arranged on the surface of one side of the circuit board 300 (for example, the upper surface shown in Figure 4); in some implementations, the gold finger 301 is arranged on the upper and lower surfaces of the circuit board 300 to provide a larger number of pins, thereby adapting to occasions where a large number of pins are required.
[0099] In some implementations, the circuit board's gold fingers extend from electrical port 204 and plug into an electrical connector on the host computer 100. The circuit board is inserted into cage 106, with gold fingers 301 providing electrical connection to the electrical connector within cage 106. Gold fingers 301 are configured to establish an electrical connection with the host computer, enabling electrical connection functions such as power supply, grounding, two-wire synchronous serial (I2C) signal transmission, and data signal transmission.
[0100] In some embodiments, the optical module 200 further includes an unlocking component 600 located outside its housing. The unlocking component 600 is configured to achieve a fixed connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer, or to release the fixed connection between the optical module 200 and the host computer.
[0101] For example, the unlocking component 600 is located on the outside of the two lower side panels 2022 of the lower housing 202 and includes a snap-fit component that mates with the cage 106 of the host computer 100. When the optical module 200 is inserted into the cage 106, the snap-fit component of the unlocking component 600 secures the optical module 200 in the cage 106. When the unlocking component 600 is pulled, the snap-fit component of the unlocking component 600 moves accordingly, thereby changing the connection between the snap-fit component and the host computer, thereby releasing the optical module 200 from the cage 106 and allowing the optical module 200 to be removed from the cage 106.
[0102] In some embodiments, the optical module 200 includes an optical receiving component 500 on which a light receiving component may be disposed. For example, the optical receiving component 500 may be provided with one or more light receiving components.
[0103] In some embodiments, the optical module 200 includes a light emitting component 400 . The light emitting component 400 can be connected to the optical receiving component 500 .
[0104] In some embodiments, the light emitting component 400 and the optical receiving component 500 are physically separated from the circuit board 300, and the light emitting component 400 and the optical receiving component 500 can be electrically connected to the circuit board 300 through corresponding flexible circuit boards or electrical connectors.
[0105] In some embodiments, one end of the optical receiving component 500 can be connected to the optical fiber adapter 700, and the other end of the optical receiving component 500 can be connected to the optical transmitting component 400. The transmitted optical signal generated by the optical transmitting component 400 is first transmitted to the optical receiving component 500, then transmitted to the optical fiber adapter 700 through the optical receiving component 500, and finally output through the optical fiber adapter 700. The external input received optical signal is input into the optical receiving component 500 through the optical fiber adapter 700, so that both the transmitted optical signal and the received optical signal pass through the optical fiber adapter 700, thereby allowing the uplink optical signal and the downlink optical signal of the optical module to share the optical fiber 101.
[0106] In some embodiments, the optical emitting component 400 can generate optical transmit signals of multiple wavelengths and combine the optical transmit signals of multiple wavelengths into a single optical transmit signal. The optical receiving component 500 can be provided with multiple optical receiving components, enabling the optical receiving component 500 to receive optical receive signals comprising multiple wavelengths. For example, the optical emitting component 400 generates optical transmit signals of three wavelengths, each having different rates, such as a first wavelength optical signal, a second wavelength optical signal, and a third wavelength optical signal having different rates. The optical receiving component 500 can receive optical receive signals of three wavelengths, each having different rates, such as a fourth wavelength optical signal, a fifth wavelength optical signal, and a sixth wavelength optical signal having different rates.
[0107] In some embodiments, the wavelength range of the first wavelength optical signal is 1340-1344 nm, such as the wavelength of the first wavelength optical signal is 1342 nm. In some examples of the present disclosure, the wavelength range of the first wavelength optical signal is shown as a specific example only. In some examples, the first wavelength optical signal may also be an optical signal of other wavelength ranges.
[0108] In some examples, the wavelength range of the second wavelength optical signal is 1575-1580 nm, such as the wavelength of the second wavelength optical signal is 1577 nm. In some examples of the present disclosure, the wavelength range of the second wavelength optical signal is shown as a specific example only. In some examples, the second wavelength optical signal may also be an optical signal of other wavelength ranges.
[0109] The wavelength range of the third wavelength optical signal is 1480-1500 nm, for example, the wavelength of the third wavelength optical signal is 1490 nm. In some examples of the present disclosure, the wavelength range of the third wavelength optical signal is shown as a specific example only. In some examples, the third wavelength optical signal may also be an optical signal of other wavelength ranges.
[0110] The wavelength range of the fourth wavelength optical signal is 1260-1280 nm, for example, the wavelength of the fourth wavelength optical signal is 1270 nm. In some examples of the present disclosure, the wavelength range of the fourth wavelength optical signal is shown as a specific example only. In some examples, the fourth wavelength optical signal may also be an optical signal of other wavelength ranges.
[0111] The wavelength range of the fifth wavelength optical signal is 1284-1288 nm, for example, the wavelength of the fifth wavelength optical signal is 1286 nm. In some examples of the present disclosure, the wavelength range of the fifth wavelength optical signal is shown as a specific example only. In some examples, the fifth wavelength optical signal may also be an optical signal of other wavelength ranges.
[0112] The wavelength range of the sixth wavelength optical signal is 1290-1330 nm, for example, the wavelength of the sixth wavelength optical signal is 1310 nm. In some examples of the present disclosure, the wavelength range of the sixth wavelength optical signal is shown as a specific example only. In some examples, the sixth wavelength optical signal may also be an optical signal of other wavelength ranges.
[0113] It can be understood that the numerical values and numerical ranges involved in some embodiments of the present disclosure are approximate values. Due to the influence of manufacturing process and measurement errors, there may be a certain range of errors. Those skilled in the art can consider this part of the error to be negligible.
[0114] In some embodiments, the optical transmission component 400 can generate optical transmission signals of two wavelengths, and the rates of the optical transmission signals of the two wavelengths can be different. For example, the optical transmission component 400 can generate a first wavelength optical signal and a second wavelength optical signal at different rates, or the optical transmission component 400 can generate a first wavelength optical signal and a third wavelength optical signal at different rates, or the optical transmission component 400 can generate a second wavelength optical signal and a third wavelength optical signal at different rates.
[0115] In some embodiments, the optical receiving component 500 can receive optical signals of two wavelengths, and the rates of the optical signals of the two wavelengths can be different.

[0137] In some embodiments, the wavelength division multiplexer 564 is longitudinally arranged in the first accommodating cavity 5171, so that the first side 5641 faces the side wall of the first shell 510 to which the optical fiber adapter 700 is not connected, and the second side 5642 faces the side wall of the first shell 510 to which the optical fiber adapter 700 is not connected, that is, the first side 5641 and the second side 5642 do not face the side wall of the first shell 510 to which the optical fiber adapter 700 is connected.
[0138] In some embodiments, the first side 5641 is located on the side where the first reflector 562 is located, and the light input port of the wavelength division multiplexer 564 is located on the reflection light path of the first reflector 562, so that the received optical signal reflected by the first reflector 562 is input to the wavelength division multiplexer 564.

[0139] In some embodiments, a first side of the first accommodating cavity 5171 communicates with the fourth connection hole 514. A second accommodating cavity 5172 is disposed on a second side of the first accommodating cavity 5171. A first baffle 5174 is disposed between the second accommodating cavity 5172 and the first accommodating cavity 5171.

[0142] In some embodiments, the sides of the second displacement prism 565 and the third displacement prism 566 are against the side walls connected to the first baffle 5174, and the first baffle 5174 fixedly supports the second displacement prism 565 and the third displacement prism 566; the first filter 563 is set on the second baffle 5176, and the second baffle 5176 fixedly supports the first filter 563.
[0143] In some embodiments, the first reflection surface of the second displacement prism 565 is located on the output light path of the first output end of the demultiplexer 564 , and the second reflection surface of the second displacement prism 565 is located on the input light path of the first light receiving component 530 .
[0144] In some embodiments, the first reflection surface of the third displacement prism 566 is located on the output light path of the third output end of the demultiplexer 564 , and the second reflection surface of the third displacement prism 566 is located on the input light path of the third light receiving component 550 .
[0145] In some embodiments, there is a gap between the second displacement prism 565 and the third displacement prism 566 , the output light path of the first output end of the demultiplexer 564 passes through the gap, and the first output end of the demultiplexer 564 is located on the input light path of the second light receiving component 540 .
[0146] In some embodiments, the fourth displacement prism 567 is used to adjust the optical path of the light emitting signal, so as to facilitate the fifth connecting hole 5102 to be closer to the center line of the first shell 510 to adapt to the light emitting component 400, and make the assembly of the light emitting component 400 and the optical accommodating component 500 more concentrated, so as to facilitate reducing the space occupied by assembling the light emitting component 400 and the optical accommodating component 500 in the optical module, and adapt to the requirements of multiple transmission channels of the optical module.

The opening 519 on the fourth side of the first accommodating cavity 5171 facilitates the secure installation of the mounting base 568, thereby facilitating the securement of the first reflector 562 within the first accommodating cavity 5171. When the first reflector 562 is positioned in a preset position through optical coupling, an optical securing device directs light for optical securing onto the mounting base 568 through the opening 519, thereby securing the mounting base 568 to the bottom plate of the first accommodating cavity 5171. After the mounting base 568 is optically secured to the first accommodating cavity 5171, the sealing plate 5191 is secured to the opening 519.
[0149] Figure 10A is a cross-sectional view of an optical accommodating component according to some embodiments, and Figure 10B is a cross-sectional view of another optical accommodating component according to some embodiments. Figure 10A shows an optical path for transmitting a light receiving signal and a light transmitting signal in the optical accommodating component, and Figure 10B shows another optical path for transmitting a light receiving signal and a light transmitting signal in the optical accommodating component. In some embodiments, the light emission signal output by the light emitting component 400 is transmitted to the incident surface of the fourth displacement prism 567 through the fifth connecting hole 5102, transmitted through the incident surface of the fourth displacement prism 567 to the first reflecting surface of the fourth displacement prism 567, reflected by the first reflecting surface of the fourth displacement prism 567 to the second reflecting surface of the fourth displacement prism 567, and transmitted to the light exit surface of the fourth displacement prism 567, transmitted through the light exit surface of the fourth displacement prism 567 to the first filter 563, transmitted through the first filter 563, transmitted to the first displacement prism 561 and output from the fourth connecting hole 514 along the output light path of the first displacement prism 561, and converged by the first lens 516 to be transmitted to the optical fiber adapter 700.
[0150] In some embodiments, the optical receiving signal is transmitted to the first lens 516 through the optical fiber adapter 700, collimated by the first lens 516 and transmitted to the light incident surface of the first displacement prism 561, transmitted to the first reflection surface of the first displacement prism 561 through the light incident surface of the first displacement prism 561, reflected by the first reflection surface of the first displacement prism 561 and transmitted to the second reflection surface of the first displacement prism 561, reflected by the second reflection surface of the first displacement prism 561 and transmitted to the light exit surface of the first displacement prism 561, transmitted through the light exit surface of the first displacement prism 561 to the first filter 563, reflected by the first filter 563 and transmitted to the first reflection mirror 562, and reflected by the first reflection mirror 562 and transmitted to the wavelength division multiplexer 564. If the received optical signal includes a fourth wavelength optical signal, the fourth wavelength optical signal is transmitted via the first output port of the wavelength division multiplexer 564 to the first reflection surface of the second displacement prism 565, reflected from the first reflection surface of the second displacement prism 565 and transmitted to the second reflection surface of the second displacement prism 565, and finally transmitted via the second reflection surface of the second displacement prism 565 to the first optical receiving component 530. If the received optical signal includes a fifth wavelength optical signal, the fifth wavelength optical signal is transmitted via the second output port of the wavelength division multiplexer 564 to the second optical receiving component 540. If the received optical signal includes a sixth wavelength optical signal, the sixth wavelength optical signal is transmitted via the wavelength division multiplexer 564 to the first reflection surface of the third displacement prism 566, reflected from the first reflection surface of the third displacement prism 566 and transmitted to the second reflection surface of the third displacement prism 566, and finally reflected from the second reflection surface of the third displacement prism 566 to the third optical receiving component 550.
[0151] In some embodiments, when a second light receiving component 540 and a third light receiving component 550 are set on the first shell 510, the fifth wavelength optical signal output by the wavelength division multiplexer 564 is transmitted to the second light receiving component 540, and the sixth wavelength optical signal output by the wavelength division multiplexer 564 is transmitted to the third light receiving component 550 via the third displacement prism 566.
[0152] In some embodiments, when a first light receiving component 540 and a third light receiving component 550 are set on the first shell 510, the fourth wavelength optical signal output by the wavelength division multiplexer 564 is transmitted to the first light receiving component 540 via the second displacement prism 565, and the sixth wavelength optical signal output by the wavelength division multiplexer 564 is transmitted to the third light receiving component 550 via the third displacement prism 566.
[0153] In some embodiments, the receiving rates of the photodetector in the first light receiving component 530, the receiving rates of the photodetector in the second light receiving component 540, and the receiving rates of the photodetector in the third light receiving component 550 are different. For example, the receiving rate of the photodetector in the second light receiving component 540 is greater than the receiving rate of the photodetector in the first light receiving component 530, and the receiving rate of the photodetector in the second light receiving component 540 is greater than the receiving rate of the photodetector in the third light receiving component 550. This ensures that the optical path of the fifth wavelength optical signal with the highest transmission rate from the output of the wavelength division multiplexer 564 to the photodetector is relatively short and the optical path is simplest, so that the photodetector in the second light receiving component 540 can receive the optical signal with high coupling efficiency. For example, the receiving rate of the photodetector in the first light receiving component 530 is 10G, the receiving rate of the photodetector in the second light receiving component 540 is 50G, and the receiving rate of the photodetector in the third light receiving component 550 is 2.5G.
[0154] In some embodiments, a filter 541 may be provided at the light input front end of the second light receiving component 540. The filter 541 is used to filter out clutter in the optical signal incident to the second light receiving component 540, thereby improving the quality of the optical signal incident to the second light receiving component 540.
[0155] In some embodiments, an isolator 569 may be provided in the fifth connection hole 5102. The isolator 569 is used to prevent the optical emission signal reflected by the fourth displacement prism 567 from re-entering the second housing 410, thereby reducing the impact of the reflected optical emission signal on the optical emission signal generated by the optical emission component 400.
