Abstract
Disclosed is an optical package which is economical to manufacture. An optical component, such as a PIN photodiode, is bonded to a substrate such as silicon with no metallization on its side surfaces. The resulting assembly is solder bonded to the bottom surface of the package so that a side surface of the substrate is adjacent to the bottom surface with essentially no solder therebetween.
