ABSTRACT:
An optical isolator comprising a combination of an optical isolator main body and a holder holding the optical isolator main body, the optical isolator main body including a Faraday rotator element, a polarizer and an analyzer disposed at the front and back of the Faraday rotator element, and permanent magnets disposed on the outside of the Faraday rotator element, the polarizer and the analyzer. The optical isolator main body has a pair of the permanent magnets in the shape of elongated flat plates opposed to each other with a space therebetween, and the Faraday rotator element, the polarizer and the analyzer disposed between the pair of permanent magnets, the holder having a concave groove formed on one side of a cylindrical portion having a central through hole, the optical isolator main body being inserted and fastened in the concave groove of the holder with the outer surfaces of the permanent magnets exposed, such that the holder can be attached to a ferrule at the end face on the opposite side of the concave groove.
