摘要

An optical fiber array apparatus (3001) including a plurality of optical fiber rows (3011a,3011b) having emission ends of optical fibers arranged each other in a row with a predetermined pitch and an optical fiber support member (3017) for supporting said optical fiber rows, said optical fiber array apparatus comprising: parallel portions closely contacting said optical fiber rows along said optical fiber rows; and restricting portions (3016a-3016d) for restricting movement of said optical fiber rows in their arranging direction so as to position said optical fibers such that a distance (ds) between optical axes of the optical fibers at the edge of each of said optical fiber rows in a projection direction forming a predetermined angle (&thetas;) to said arranging direction is substantially a constant value.
