Abstract:
An optical module that includes at least one semiconductor optical device, a carrier, a housing, and eutectic alloy that fixes the carrier to the housing is disclosed. The carrier mounts a component that couples with the semiconductor optical device. The housing, which includes a side wall made of ceramics and a base made of metal to form a space that encloses the semiconductor optical device, the carrier, and the component therein. The carrier provides a room facing the base and the side wall, where the room receives excess eutectic alloy oozing out from a gap between the carrier and the base.

Claim (Index 12):
The optical module according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the at least one semiconductor optical device is a semiconductor laser diode (LD), wherein the optical module further includes a thermoelectric cooler (TEC), a substrate, and an LD carrier; the TEC being mounted on the base next to the carrier using an AuSn eutectic alloy, the substrate being mounted on the TEC, the LD carrier being mounted on the substrate using solder having a melting point lower than a melting point of the AuSn eutectic alloy that fixes the TEC onto the base, the LD being mounted on the LD carrier, and wherein the TEC includes a bottom plate, a top plate and a plurality of Peltier elements put between the bottom plate and the top plate, the bottom plate having a chamfered corner facing the carrier, the chamfered corner of the bottom plate receiving excess AuSn eutectic alloy for fixing the TEC onto the base.
