Method for making an optical device with integrated optoelectronic components
First Claim
1. A method for making an optical device with integrated optoelectronic components, comprising:
- a) making a protective structure comprising at least one support in which at least one blind hole is made in the at least one support, at least one optical element being positioned in the blind hole and attached to at least one surface of the blind hole;
b) then attaching a face of the support to a substrate comprising the integrated optoelectronic components, the blind hole forming a cavity in which the at least one optical element faces one of the optoelectronic components;
c) then performing thinning of the substrate and making electric connections through the substrate; and
d) then making at least one aperture through the protective structure and a bottom surface of the blind hole, uncovering at least one portion of an optical field of the at least one optical element.
