ABSTRACT:
An optical module includes a semiconductor optical device, an optical fiber, a ferrule, and a mounting component. The optical fiber is optically coupled to the semiconductor optical device. The ferrule holds the optical fiber. The mounting component includes a first support groove for supporting the ferrule and a second support groove for supporting the optical fiber. The semiconductor optical device is mounted on the mounting component. The first and second support grooves are sequentially arranged in a direction of a predetermined axis. The second support groove has one end and the other end. The depth of the second support groove decreases from the one end toward the other end. With such a structure, the optical module allows the optical fiber to be positioned with high accuracy onto the mounting component.
