Abstract:
1. An optoelectronic module, comprising: a heat sink having a first surface and a mounting surface opposed to the first surface; a sub-assembly comprising a submount having a plurality of respective first and second surfaces that separately form a plurality of respective receiving regions for receiving optical devices comprising singlets, the first surface of the submount abutting and overlapping a portion of a first surface of a singlet over the entirety of the first surface of the submount, the second surface of the submount abutting and overlapping a respective portion of a second surface of the singlet over the entirety of the second surface of the submount, the first and second surfaces of the singlet extending beyond the first and second surfaces of the submount in a direction orthogonal to the mounting surface of the heatsink, such that for adjacent singlets arranged in the respective receiving regions a third surface of a first singlet abuts a portion of a first surface of a second singlet and such that the third surface of the first singlet lies entirely beyond the respective receiving region of the submount in a direction parallel to the mounting surface of the heat sink, the submount aligning and maintaining a consistent separation distance between adjacent optical elements in the respective singlets; and at least one integrated circuit electrically coupled to the singlets.
