Optical device package having a configured frame

摘要

An optical device package includes a substrate, optical semiconductor component, optical fiber, frame and lid. The substrate has a longitudinal notch for mounting the optical fiber and a lateral groove with a proximally facing stop surface. The frame includes at least one downwardly extending projection configured and dimensioned so as to engage a lateral end portion of the lateral groove. The frame is self-aligning and seats itself by being dropped into place.
