ABSTRACT:
A small Faraday rotator is placed in the inner space of a receptacle and a holder. Because the plane of polarization is rotated, even when backreflection light returns to a laser diode, the lasing state does not become unstable. Being placed in the inner space and fixed there, the Faraday rotator can be small and therefore does not increase the part cost notably. The assembly cost does not increase, because it is not required to tightly press-fit a member into a narrow hole.
