ABSTRACT:
An optical module, such as a package for a vertical cavity surface emitting laser diode (VCSEL) or other light emitting device, includes monitoring of the emitted optical power by tapping the transmitted beam. The module includes a substrate, which carries the light emitting device and an optical monitor. In addition, the module includes a transparent plate with at least two reflective regions that together redirect part of the light from the light emitting device to the optical monitor.
