Optical sensor module and method for manufacturing the same
Abstract
An optical sensor module includes a lid defining a first chamber and a second chamber isolated from the first chamber, a light emitting component, a light sensing component, and a lid. The light emitting component is disposed within the first chamber and the light sensing component is disposed within the second chamber. The lid includes a first lens with a non-convex upper surface and a convex lower surface facing the light emitting component. The upper surface of the first lens may be substantially planar. The lid may further include a second lens and a capping substrate, wherein the top of the first chamber and a top of the second chamber are demarcated by the capping substrate, and wherein the capping substrate defines a first penetrating hole in which the first lens is formed or disposed and a second penetrating hole in which the second lens is formed or disposed.
