Abstract:
1. An optical transceiver system, comprising: a transmitter configured for emitting a first light beam with a first wavelength; a receiver configured for receiving a second light beam with a second wavelength; an optical fiber configured for transmitting the first light beam and the second light beam; and a light guide member comprising a lens block having a first side surface facing toward both the transmitter and the receiver, a second side surface facing toward the optical fiber and perpendicular to the first side surface, and an inner reflecting surface 45 degrees slanted relative to each of the first side surface and the second side surface, a first lens portion formed on the first side surface and optically coupling the transmitter, a second lens portion formed on the first side surface and optically coupling the receiver, a third lens portion formed on the second side surface and optically coupling the optical fiber, and a wavelength divisional multiplexer embedded in the lens block, the wavelength divisional multiplexer configured for transmitting the first light beam from the transmitter to the optical fiber and transmitting the second light beam from the optical fiber to the receiver, wherein the wavelength divisional multiplexer is a planar lightwave circuit splitter and comprises a first port and a second port facing toward the inner reflecting surface, and a third port optically coupled to the third lens portion, and the second light beam transmitting toward the second port is parallel with the first light beam exiting from the first port.
