Abstract

A method begins with forming a first wiring layer on a substrate, forming a cavity in the substrate, and laminating a bottom side of the substrate so as to cover a bottom side of the cavity. Next, an integrated circuit is placed within the cavity of the substrate, and then a first optically transparent layer is disposed on the top surface of the substrate to cover a top surface of the integrated circuit. The first optically transparent layer has an aperture formed therein exposing at least a portion of the top surface of the integrated circuit. A second wiring layer is disposed on a top surface of the first optically transparent layer in a pattern that does not obstruct light traveling to or from the top surface of the integrated circuit. The integrated circuit is a laser emitting integrated circuit or a reflected light detector.
