Abstract
A hermetically sealed optical-semiconductor container in which an optical-semiconductor element is accommodated, comprising a frame,made of a metal, an insulating material or a composite material of a metal and an insulating material, a first bottom plate,fixed to the frame, and a second bottom plate,fixed to opposite surface of the first bottom plate to the frame, either of the first and second bottom plates being made of a metal and having a smaller Young's modulus than the other. For example, the first bottom plate,is not less than 25×10,kg/mm,in Young's modulus, and the second bottom plate,is not greater than 15×10,kg/mm,. An optical-semiconductor element, an electronic cooling device and the like are mounted in this container, thus producing an optical-semiconductor module free from degradation of an electronic cooling element nor deviation of an optical axis occurs.
