Abstract:
1. A light transmission and reception module, comprising: an optical waveguide film formed with an optical waveguide; a light transmitting section having a light emitting element and a sub-mount for holding the light emitting element, that holds one end of the optical waveguide film on the sub-mount so that light emitted from the light emitting element enters into an incident end surface of the optical waveguide; and a light detecting section having a light detecting element and a sub-mount for holding the light detecting element, that holds the other end of the optical waveguide film on the sub-mount so that light emitted from an emission end surface of the optical waveguide is detected by the light detecting element; wherein, each sub-mount includes a recess for mounting for embedding and mounting an optical component and an adhesive filling groove formed adjacent to the recess for mounting.
