ABSTRACT:
An optical branching device according to present invention comprises a cladding member, a first core member, a second core member, and a third core member. These core members are isolated each other, and the with of a edge face of the first core member is greater than total length of the widths of second and third core members terminals facing to the first core member and a gap between the second and third core members.
