Abstract: Various optoelectronic modules are described and include one or more optoelectronic devices. Each optoelectronic module includes one or more optoelectronic devices. Sidewalls laterally surround each optoelectronic device and can be in direct contact with sides of the optoelectronic device or, in some cases, with an overmold surrounding the optoelectronic device. The sidewalls can be composed, for example, of a vacuum injected material that is non-transparent to light emitted by or detectable by the optoelectronic device. The module also includes a passive optical element. Depending on the implementation, the passive optical element can be on a cover for the module, directly on a top surface of the optoelectronic device, or on an overmold surrounding the optoelectronic device. Methods of fabricating such modules are described as well, and can facilitate manufacturing the modules using wafer-level processes.

Abstract: An optoelectronic module assembly includes an optoelectronic module. The module includes: an active optoelectronic component in or on a mounting substrate, an optical sub-assembly, and a spacer disposed between the mounting substrate and the optical sub-assembly so as to establish a particular distance between the active optoelectronic component and the optical sub-assembly. The optoelectronic module assembly also includes a recessed substrate including first and second surfaces, wherein the second surface is in a plane closer to the optical sub-assembly than is the first surface. The optoelectronic module is mounted on the first surface. The second surface is for mounting other components.

Abstract: Image sensor modules include primary high-resolution imagers and secondary imagers. For example, an image sensor module may include a semiconductor chip including photosensitive regions defining, respectively, a primary camera and a secondary camera. The image sensor module may include an optical assembly that does not substantially obstruct the field-of-view of the secondary camera. Some modules include multiple secondary cameras that have a field-of-view at least as large as the field-of-view of the primary camera. Various features are described to facilitate acquisition of signals that can be used to calculate depth information.

Abstract: An optical ranging system includes a demodulation pixel array and a multi-mode light emitter. The multi-mode light emitter includes an illumination source and can generate a diffuse illumination and a discrete illumination in a first and second mode, respectively. Accordingly, in some implementations, the optical ranging system collects distance data via a time-of-flight technique and a structure-light technique. The illumination source can be operable to produce a diffuse illumination in a first mode and a discrete illumination in a second mode.

The at least one transparent portion (t) is made of one or more materials substantially transparent for light of at least a specific spectral range, referred to as transparent materials, and the at least one blocking portion (b) is made of one or more materials substantially non-transparent for light of the specific spectral range, referred to as non-transparent materials. The transparent portion (t) comprises at least one passive optical component (L). The at least one passive optical component (L) comprises a transparent element (6) having two opposing approximately flat surfaces substantially perpendicular to a vertical direction in a distance approximately equal to a thickness of the at least one blocking portion (b) measured along the vertical direction, and, attached to the transparent element (6), at least one optical structure (5).

Abstract: The wafer-level manufacturing method makes possible to manufacture ultrathin optical devices such as opto-electronic modules. A clear encapsulation is applied to an initial wafer including active optical components and a wafer-size substrate. Thereon, a photostructurable spectral filter layer is produced which defines apertures. Then, trenches are produced which extend through the clear encapsulation and establish sidewalls of intermediate products. Then, an opaque encapsulation is applied to the intermediate products, thus filling the trenches and producing aperture stops. Cutting through the opaque encapsulation material present in the trenches, singulated optical modules are produced, wherein side walls of the intermediate products are covered by the opaque encapsulation material. The wafer-size substrate can be attached to a rigid carrier wafer during most process steps.
