ABSTRACT:
An optical multiplexing/demultiplexing device with multiple ports. A plurality of pairs of V-grooves are provided in parallel on each substrate made of invar or the same type of material as the optical fibers with the same linear expansion coefficient so as to store the optical fibers. A pair of substrates having the symmetrical structure are assembled to form a plurality of optical multiplexing/demultiplexing circuits. A pair of trenches are provided on each substrate in parallel with and on both sides of the V-grooves. Optical fiber terminals led from the respective V-grooves are connected to form a 1.times.n (n: an integer.gtoreq.2) star coupler structure.
