  1. Development of optopackage at NIKHEF Optical links session SCT week, 3 June 99 Fred Hartjes Contents Geometry Efficiency VCSEL to fibre coupling Pin diode Conclusions

  2. Introduction • Intended as a simple solution for the forward system test • Based on packaged elements VCSEL in ‘miniature pill’ (SV 2637-001) Pin diode HFD 3013 in TO46 (TO46 still too big)

  3. Geometry considerations • Less mechanical protection required by using packaged elements • Fibres hold by crimped capillary pipe (Ø 0.5 mm). • Capillaries hold by polyester block (Arnite). • Electrical connection VCSEL’s and PIN diode by conductive glue • Alignment of VCSEL’s by adjusting VCSEL position while glue has not yet cured • => Rapid and non-critical assembly procedure expected for most steps • For forward system test: stripped PIN diode from TO 46 housing

  4. Assembly opto plugin

  5. VCSEL to fibre coupling • sufficient for commercial receivers at forward system test (range 5 - 100 µW) • NOT sufficient for planned off detector opto receiver • Coupling efficiency 8.5%

  6. Lumunous power (P vs vertical fibre position (Y) for partially removed VCSEL lens 300 fibre 250 Y no lens cut m 170 m m 460 m 200 m 690 m W) m m 690 m (d = 30 m) m P ( Emitter: SV 2637-001 Fibre: Newport 50/125/250 150 Detector: Radiantech FMT 220 ST Emitter current: 10.0 mA m => est. lum. power: 970 W 19-5-99 100 50 0 -50 0 50 100 150 m Y ( m), arbitrary origin Improvement by cutting VCSEL lens Efficiency up to 30% VCSEL

  7. More improvement using focussing lens Efficiency over 40%

  8. Power vs. focussing • 2 magnifications • 1 • 0.64

  9. Pin diode • TO46 case too big • using stripped diode: die + focussing sphere • die 620 x 660 µm • sphere Ø 570 µm

  10. Conclusions/ remarks • Design probably feasible for forward system test • For final SCT design • optical power small (300 uW using removed VCSEL lens • better with additional focussing lens ( > 400 µW from 1 mW optical power) • Drawbacks of focussing lens • more length of opto package • also alignment in Z critical • 3013 pin diode may be produced as a special in miniature pill or comparable housing for big quantities
