ABSTRACT:
An optical module11acomprises an optical-receptacle housing13, an optical-communication subassembly15, and a holder17. The flange portion13bhas a plurality of first portions13c, which extend along a reference plane perpendicular to a predetermined axis, Ax, and a plurality of second portions13d, each of which is positioned between the first portions13c. The outer periphery of the first portions13cis positioned at the outside of a reference cylinder whose center is coincident with the predetermined axis Ax. The outer periphery of the second portions13dis positioned at the inside of the reference cylinder. The optical-receptacle housing13and the holder17are temporarily fixed to each other at the second portions13dof the flange portion13bthrough second bonding members27ato27d. The optical-receptacle housing13and the holder17are further fixed with increased strength to each other at the first portions13cof the flange portion13bthrough first bonding members25ato25d. As a result, the deviation in optical alignment can be decreased to a small magnitude.
