A hermetically encapsulated AlGaAs laser diode
Abstract
A hermetically encapsulated AlGaAs laser diode used as an optical source in a light-wave communication system is described. The laser description includes (1) the mechanical and optical design of the encapsulation; (2) the technique used in assembly of the encapsulation; and (3) a review of the environmental tests that were used to establish the design capability of the completed device.
