The invention provides an optical device and an optical device manufacturing method wherein provisions are made to be able to precisely align an optical fiber relative to a substrate without heating the substrate and to maintain the optimum alignment condition for an extended period of time. More specifically, the invention provides an optical device manufacturing method which includes the steps of forming a first metallic film on a portion of a substrate, forming a second metallic film on a portion of the outer circumference of an optical fiber, and bonding together the first metallic film and the second metallic film by surface activated bonding, and an optical device manufactured by such a manufacturing method. |
