PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical module in which light is certainly attenuated without increasing the number of the components.SOLUTION: An optical component 1 for the optical module, comprising a spherical lens 9, a guide sleeve 3 for holding a ferrule 6 in which an optical fiber 5 is inserted and secured, in a bore, and a glass stub 4 which is arranged in the bore of the guide sleeve 3 and which has a spherically convex surface in contact with the end surface of the ferrule 6 on the optical element 10 side, is fabricated. When the optical component is fabricated, a dopant is contained in the glass stub 4 to provide a light attenuating function. An optical module assembled from the optical component 1 is fabricated. |
