DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
(23) Embodiments of an optical component packaging structure disclosed in the instant disclosure are illustrated via specific examples as follows, and people familiar in the art may easily understand the advantages and efficacies of the instant disclosure by disclosure of the specification. The instant disclosure may be implemented or applied by other different specific examples, and each of the details in the specification may be applied based on different views and may be modified and changed under the spirit of the instant disclosure. The figures in the instant disclosure are not depicted according to actual size and do not reflect the actual size of the relevant structure. The following embodiments further illustrate related technologies of the instant disclosure in detail, but the scope of the instant disclosure is not limited herein.
(24) In this specification, the terminology such as first, second, or third is used for describing various elements or information, but the elements or information should not be restricted by these terminologies. These terminologies are used for distinguishing between an element and another element, or a piece of information and another piece of information. In addition, the terminology used in this specification can include any one of or a plurality of combinations of related items depending upon the situations.
First Embodiment
(25) Referring to
(26) In detail, the semiconductor stack structure 114 can be stacked up by a P-type semiconductor material, an N-type semiconductor material, and an insulating material. In which, the insulating material is sandwiched between the P-type semiconductor material and the N-type semiconductor material. The semiconductor stack structure 114 has a hot junction 110a and a cold junction 110b, and the hot junction 110a of the far-infrared sensor chip 110 is located above the cavity 112a where the P-type semiconductor material and the N-type semiconductor material contacted each other. Relatively, the cold junction 110b of the far-infrared sensor chip 110 is distant to the hot junction 110a, the latter of which is closer to a center C of the cavity 112a.
(27) Further referring to
(28) In addition, the cavity 112a of the semiconductor substrate 112 of the optical component packaging structure 10 has a height (not labeled) which is in a range of 10 m to 1000 m, and the cavity 112a can be filled of air or be in a vacuum state, as shown in
(29) Furthermore, the covering member 140 may be made of a silicon material to block other visible lights or infrared lights from entering into the optical component packaging structure 10 from the front side thereof. That is the covering member 140 of this embodiment is mainly used to allow the far-infrared light to pass therethrough, and to filter away other lights so as to upgrade the sensitivity of the far-infrared sensor chip 110.
(30) In summary, this embodiment uses a metal having high thermal conductivity properties and uses the first metal layer 130 with an optimal thickness to shield against other stray lights. For example, the near infrared light and the far infrared light (that is, the infrared lights other than the measured object) pass through the optical component packaging structure 10. Furthermore, this embodiment cooperatively uses the cavity 112a which is designed to have a height ranging from 10 m to 1000 m, so that the heat generated among elements in the structure can avoid being influenced by each other. Thus, an optimal shielding effect for blocking the infrared lights (especially the far infrared light having a wavelength ranging from 15 m to 1000 m) and an optimal thermal conductive effect are achieved. Moreover, because the optical component packaging structure 10 of this embodiment of the instant disclosure has a superior thermal conductive effect, the temperature of the optical component packaging structure 10 can be immediately modulated to reach a constant temperature, so as to maintain the stability of the product. In addition, since the first metal layer 130 of this embodiment of the instant disclosure has a very thin thickness, which is in a range of 0.1 m to 30 m, a lightweighting effect can be achieved.
Second Embodiment
(31)
(32) Via the arrangement of the plurality of metal leads 131, 132 of the second embodiment, the shielding efficacy of infrared light can be improved, and the temperature conduction velocity can be increased to reach a constant temperature in the optical component packaging structure 10a quicker.
Third Embodiment
(33)
(34) In this embodiment, the light transmission substrate 142 may be made of a material such as glass or plastic, or may be other substrates having better light transmittance. The second metal layer 144 has a thickness which is in a range of 0.1 m to 30 m. The covering member 140 further includes an anti-reflective coating (AR Coating) (not shown). Since light passes through material such as glass, which attenuates the penetrating power of light, the transmission rate after the light passes through the material is less than 100%. Therefore, the AR Coating may be disposed for increasing the light transmission rate.
(35) Via the optical component packaging structure 10b of this embodiment, the shielding efficacy of infrared light can be improved, and the temperature conduction velocity can be increased to reach a constant temperature in the optical component packaging structure 10b quicker.
Fourth Embodiment
(36)
(37) In this embodiment, the third metal layer 146 has a thickness which is in a range of 0.1 m to 30 m. Via the optical component packaging structure 10c of this embodiment, the shielding efficacy of infrared light can be improved, and the temperature conduction velocity can be increased to reach a constant temperature in the optical component packaging structure 10b quicker.
Fifth Embodiment
(38)
Sixth Embodiment
(39)
Seventh Embodiment
(40)
(41) Specifically, in this embodiment, the far-infrared sensor chip 110 of the optical component packaging structure 10f is selected from a group consisting of thermopile, pyroelectric element and thermosensitive element such as bolometer. The covering member 140 has an opening 1400a exposing the far-infrared sensor chip 110, and further includes a light transmission substrate (eg. the light transmission member) 142 disposed at the opening 1400a. In addition, the covering member 140 is made of a silicon material to block other visible lights or infrared lights entering into the optical component packaging structure 10f from the front side thereof. That is, the covering member 140 of this embodiment is mainly used to allow the far-infrared light to pass therethrough, and to filter other lights to increase the sensitivity of the far-infrared sensor chip 110. The light transmission substrate 142 may be made of a translucent material such as glass or plastic, or may be other substrates which have a better light transmittance. The covering member 140 is made of a light-tight material which is selected from a group consisting of plastic material and silicon material, so as to block visible lights.
(42) The inner surface 1402 and the substrate 100 include an angle ranging from 30 to 80 therebetween, and via this design of this embodiment, molecules can be deposited more intensively during sputtering in the manufacturing process. Therefore, the sputtering operation can be conducted more conveniently, so that the problems of uneven sputtering of vertical covers and operational inconvenience in the prior art can be overcome. It should be noted that, the sputtering is used only as an illustrative example in this embodiment, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
(43) In this embodiment, the angle preferably ranges from 45 to 75, and more preferably ranges from 55 to 70, and particularly preferably ranges from 60 to 65.
Eighth Embodiment
(44)
(45) Specifically, the metal layer portion 140b of the covering member 140 has a thickness which is in a range of 0.1 m to 30 m, and is disposed on the first outer surface 140c.sub.1 of the covering cap 140c. In this embodiment, the covering cap 140c made of a light-tight material can be used to block visible lights. The metal layer portion 140b has a thickness ranging from 0.1 m to 30 m and is disposed on the first outer surface 140c.sub.1 of the covering cap 140c, so that the outside visible light and the infrared light passing from lateral sides, which influence the far-infrared sensor chip 110, can be stopped. In this manner, the far-infrared sensor chip 110 can accurately receive the infrared light (especially the infrared light having a wavelength ranging from 15 m to 1000 m) being emitted from the subject located at the front side of the far-infrared sensor chip 110, so as to improve the SNR and the overall performance of the optical component packaging structure 10g. Furthermore, since the metal layer portion 140b has the thickness ranging from 0.1 m to 30 m, it can effectively prevent any unnecessary infrared lights from passing into the optical component packaging structure 10g of this embodiment, so that both the shielding efficacy of blocking the infrared lights and the thermal conductive effect can be optimized. Thus, the temperature in the optical component packaging structure 10g can be immediately adjusted to be constant to maintain the stability of the product. Moreover, because the metal layer portion 140b of this embodiment has a very thin thickness ranging from 0.1 m to 30 m, a lightweighting effect can be achieved.

In addition, in this embodiment, the optical component packaging structure 101 further includes a light transmission substrate 142 which may be made of a translucent material such as glass or plastic, or may be other substrates which have a better light transmittance.
(55) By virtue of the following designs in this embodiment, the metal plate 160 of the optical component packaging structure 101 is disposed on the supporting structure 150 to accommodate the far-infrared sensor chip 110, and has a thickness ranging from 0.01 m to 0.5 m that can stop the outside visible light and the infrared light passing from lateral sides from influencing the far-infrared sensor chip 110. The far-infrared sensor chip 110 can accurately receive the infrared light emitted from the subject located at the front side of the far-infrared sensor chip 110, so as to improve the SNR and the overall performance of the optical component packaging structure 101. Furthermore, since the metal plate 160 of this embodiment directly replaces the cover of the prior art, it is unnecessary for a metal shielding structure to be disposed on a periphery of a packaging structure, so that the manufacturing cost can be deceased and a lightweighting effect can be achieved.

The photosensitive member 170 is disposed in the first concave part 102 and is exposed therefrom, and is electrically connected to the substrate 100. The light source chip 180 is disposed in the second concave part 104 and exposed therefrom, and is electrically connected to the substrate 100.
(62) Specifically, the substrate 100 is made of a light-tight material such as a plastic material or a silicon material which is used to block visible lights, and a thickness of the substrate 100 is 0.3 mm or less. The photosensitive member 170 and the light source chip 180 respectively have a thickness which is in a range of 50 m to 80 m, and a total thickness of the optical component packaging structure 10o is 0.3 mm or less. The light source chip 180 is selected from a group consisting of laser diode and light emitting diode. The light source chip 180 in
(63) In the packaging structure of prior arts, because a photosensitive member is disposed on a substrate, and a light source is usually electrically connected to the photosensitive member disposed on the substrate in a plugging manner, the overall size and thickness of the product cannot be reduced and thinned.
(64) In this embodiment, the photosensitive member 170 and the light source chip 180 are respectively disposed in the first concave part 102 and the second concave part 104 to integrate the light source chip 180 in an identical optical component packaging structure 10o. That is, the substrate 100 is used to directly wrap rear and lateral sides of the photosensitive member 170 and the light source chip 180 and expose front sides of the photosensitive member 170 and the light source chip 180. In such manner, the thickness of the optical component packaging structure 10o can be the same as the thickness of the substrate 100. Since the photosensitive member 170 and the light source chip 180 are respectively disposed in the first concave part 102 and the second concave part 104, the overall thickness of the optical component packaging structure 10o is not influenced and maintains within 0.3 mm or less, such that thinning is achieved and the problems present in the prior art are overcome.
