Housing for a photoactive semiconductor chip and a method for the production thereof

摘要

In a process for producing a ceramic housing ( 1 ), first of all a ceramic base body ( 4 ) comprising a ceramic base ( 2 ) and side parts ( 3 ) is produced. Then, a metal frame ( 7 ) is placed onto the ceramic base body ( 4 ) and a window ( 11 ) is soldered onto a side opening ( 6 ). After a photoactive semiconductor chip has been introduced into the ceramic base body ( 4 ), the ceramic housing ( 1 ) is closed off using a metal cover ( 12 ).
