Patent ID: 7675955

Claim:
A laser assembly comprising: a substrate, the substrate having a substantially planar surface region and a raised feature, the raised feature comprising two or more reflective surfaces; two or more lasers, each of the two or more lasers mounted to the substantially planar surface region and configured to emit a laser beam directed towards the raised feature at a nonzero tilt angle in relation to the substantially planar surface region; and block features for respective ones of the two or more lasers, each block feature being disposed between its respective laser and the substantially planar surface region and being operative to tilt its respective laser in relation to the substantially planar surface region; wherein the block features are configured to provide tilt angles for the respective lasers that offset respective differences between actual angles of the respective reflective surfaces and angles of such reflective surfaces which would otherwise be required to ensure that the laser beams are reflected by the respective reflective surfaces at angles substantially normal to the substantially planar surface region.
