A bidirectional optical transceiver is disclosed. In the bidirectional optical transceiver, by implementing, as a stacked structure, an optical bench in which an optical system and an optical-transmitting module are installed and a multi-layer substrate with good thermal, electrical and high-resistance characteristics in which an optical-receiving module and a driving circuit for driving the optical-transmitting module are installed, thermal, electrical or optical crosstalk is prevented, high-speed transmission of transmission signals is possible through high-speed modulation thereof, and miniaturization is achieved.

Bidirectional optical transceiver

An optical waveguide and a bi-directional transceiver are provided. A single mode optical fiber has one end coupled to one end of a hollow optical fiber and an opposite end having a slope plane, thereby separating optical signals travelling in opposite directions from each other. Manual alignment for an optical system is easily realized without the need for additional optical elements, so that the light transmission/reception performance of the optical waveguide is improved and the structure of the optical waveguide is smaller.

Optical waveguide and bi-directional optical transceiver

A bidirectional optical transceiver module with a temperature control function is provided. The bidirectional optical transceiver module includes a package configured to have a flat bottom surface and include two windows used for optical transmission and reception; a ferrule configured to be coupled to one side of the package and allow an optical fiber to be inserted therein; an optical receiver module configured to be coupled to another side of the package in a direction perpendicular to that of the ferrule coupled to the package; a sub-optical transmitter module configured to be built in the package and include a light-emitting element and a collimating lens used to collimate light from the light-emitting element; an optical filter configured to be built in the package, transmit light from the light-emitting element to the optical fiber and reflect light received through the optical fiber to the optical receiver module; and a temperature regulator configured to be built in the package and control the sub-optical transmitter module to a preset temperature. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost of the package, effectively discharge heat, and be more endurable to external impact or vibration.

Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a through-via. The through-via manufacturing method includes forming a core-via hole in a wafer, forming a suction-via hole adjacent to the core-via hole in the wafer, forming a via core in the core-via hole, forming a polymer-via hole connected to the suction-via hole in the wafer, filling the polymer-via hole with polymer solution by creating a vacuum inside the polymer-via hole by drawing air out of the suction-via hole, and polishing the wafer such that the via core formed in the core-via hole is exposed.

Method of manufacturing through-via

Disclosed are an optical waveguide and a bi-directional light transceiver, in which a wavelength selective filer is provided in the core of the optical waveguide to divide bi-directional signals, so that manual alignment of optical components are easily achieved and thus a small bi-directional light transceiver is realized and transmission/reception efficiency of light is enhanced.

An optical waveguide device and an optical communication module are provided. In the optical waveguide device which includes a core and a cladding layer formed around the core and has one end formed to be inclined so as to refract input and output signals, the core includes therein a diffraction portion for diffracting an optical signal incident through the cladding layer to propagate straight through the core. Thus, it is possible to prevent deterioration of an optical signal coupling ratio in implementing a technique of transmitting optical signals in opposite directions.
