<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a guide member of an optical fiber, which can be mounted on an optical member with an adhesive with a sufficiently small positional error to ensure reliability on durability, thereby highly accurately controlling parallelism and distance between end faces of the guide member and the optical component during assembling, while achieving a uniform thickness of adhesive to be used and highly accurately controlling a gap (the thickness of adhesive), as well as reducing a manufacture cost of a device. <P>SOLUTION: The guide member 38 movably arranged on an end face 42BS of a glass plate 42 on the optical component 40 and adjacently having a pair of thin films 44 on an end face 38BS is positioned for the end face 42BS of the optical component 40 by an active alignment method while a primary coated optical fibers 34a of a pair of monitor fibers 34 supported on an alignment stage 30 are inserted in two guide holes 38ai, respectively. Then, the adhesive AD is applied between the end face 42BS and the end face 38BS. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT</p> |
