  • Abstract
    A fiber-coupled photodetector package has been developed that provides a true hermetic environment. Fiber coupling is accomplished using expanded-beam connector elements to image the fiber core onto the photodetector through the package window. This particular package concept has important applications in printed-circuit-board implementations of fiber-optic receiver preamplifiers.
