An optical fiber component comprises an optical fiber that transmits light; and a coreless fiber that is connected to the end surface of the optical fiber and prevents foreign matter from adhering to the end surface of the optical fiber. The optical fiber and the coreless fiber are connected by fusing one end surface of the coreless fiber to the end surface of the optical fiber. The core section on the end surface of the optical fiber is no longer exposed to the air. Moreover, the power density of light that is input at the core of the optical fiber is greatly reduced more than when there is no coreless fiber, so it is possible to prevent compounds of C, H and O from adhering to the core of the optical fiber. |
