Optical module

An optical module includes an upper shell, a lower shell, a circuit board, a base, a laser assembly and a silicon optical chip. The upper shell and the lower shell form a wrapping cavity. The circuit board is located in the wrapping cavity. The base is located on the circuit board or in a through hole of the circuit board. The laser assembly is located on the base, and is configured to provide light. The silicon optical chip is located on the base, and is configured to receive the light, and modulate the light to convert an electrical signal into an optical signal, and is configured to receive an optical signal from an outside of the optical module and convert the optical signal into an electrical signal.

This application provides an optical module, and relates to the field of optical communication. An optical module provided in the embodiments of this application includes a laser box and a silicon photonic chip that are enclosed and packaged by an upper enclosure part and a lower enclosure part. The laser box is disposed on and is in contact with the surface of the silicon photonic chip by the side wall or the base. The laser chip is disposed on the top plane of the laser box. The top plane is in contact with the upper enclosure part for heat dissipation, so as to help heat generated by the laser chip be conducted to the upper enclosure part via the top plane, so that the heat generated by the laser chip is dissipated not via the silicon photonic chip.
