<p>The purpose of the present invention is to provide an optical element module, which is provided with a small and low-cost structure, and whereby operation efficiency of sealing operations is improved, and a thermal damage of a fiber coat is reduced. Disclosed is an optical element module wherein: a housing for housing an optical element is provided; the optical element is optically coupled to an optical fiber introduced into the housing through a through hole that is provided in a side wall of the housing; and outside of the housing, a protection member that protects the optical fiber led out from the through hole is disposed on a part of the optical fiber, and the optical fiber is held by means of a fiber fixing section integrally formed with the housing by having the protection member between the fiber fixing section and the optical fiber. The optical element module is characterized in that, in the through hole, a gap between the side wall and a bare fiber section having an optical fiber coat removed therefrom is sealed and fixed using a metal material.</p> |
