Abstract:
1. An optical module comprising: an optical element which transmits or receives an optical signal; an optical transmission line optically coupled to the optical element to transmit the optical signal; and a board to which at least one end portion including an incident and outgoing port of the optical signal in the optical transmission line and the optical element are fixed, wherein a wall facing a side surface of the optical transmission line is provided in the board, a first space is provided between the board and the optical transmission line, and a second space is provided between the side surface of the optical transmission line and the wall, and the first and second spaces are filled with a bonding agent, wherein, in the boding agent, a difference in deformation amount between the optical transmission line and the board is absorbed by a deformation of the bonding agent, so that a peel-off and a breakage of the optical transmission line are hardly generated, and the optical transmission line and the board are stably bonded to each other.
