<p>An optical device (10) comprises an optical waveguide component (11), a housing (20) for the optical waveguide component, and a connecting portion (32) that attaches the optical waveguide component (11) to the housing (20) while substantially completely isolating the optical waveguide component from force imposed on the connecting portion due to a dimensional change of the housing (20) caused by a variation in ambient conditions. The invention includes the method of making the optical device (10) and isolating the optical waveguide from the housing.</p> |
