摘要: An embodiment optical coupling structure includes: at least one optical element; at least one optical fiber which has an end surface facing the optical element; and an adhesive agent which is applied to at least the end surface and a part of the optical element so as to optically and mechanically couple the optical element and the optical fiber, wherein both a contact angle which a surface of the optical element and a surface of the adhesive agent make and a contact angle which a surface of the optical fiber and the surface of the adhesive agent make are less than 90 degrees. With such a configuration, alignment between the optical element and the optical fiber can be realized by passive alignment so that a mounting time and a mounting cost in coupling the optical element and the optical fiber can be reduced.

摘要: An optical waveguide alignment method includes a step of covering an end portion of an optical fiber, an end portion of a PLC, and a microlens with an adhesive before curing in a state in which at least one microlens is disposed between incidence and emission end faces of end portions of the optical fiber and the PLC, a step of causing light for alignment to be incident on at least one of the optical fiber or the PLC so that light enters a portion covered with the adhesive between the optical fiber and the PLC, and a step of curing the adhesive after the microlens moves onto an optical path between the optical fiber and the PLC due to radiation pressure of light. The optical fiber and the PLC are optically connected via the adhesive and the microlens, and the optical fiber, the PLC, and the microlens are mechanically connected by the adhesive.
