Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing an optical module, comprising: providing a first resin on an optical semiconductor element mounting surface of an optical transmission line holding member having the optical semiconductor element mounting surface, an electrical interconnection layer formed on the optical semiconductor element mounting surface, and an optical transmission line guide hole with an opening on the optical semiconductor element mounting surface, with at least a portion of the optical transmission line guide hole not provided the first resin; mounting an optical semiconductor element, which comprises an electrode and a light-receiving or light-emitting area, on the optical semiconductor element mounting surface on which the first resin has been provided, in such a way that the electrode and the light-receiving or light-emitting area face the optical transmission line holding member, and electrically connecting the electrode and the electrical interconnection layer; and filling a second resin into a gap between the optical transmission line holding member including the optical transmission line inserted and the optical semiconductor element mounted on the optical semiconductor element mounting surface by inserting the optical transmission line after supplying the second resin to the optical transmission line guide hole, wherein the first resin is provided so that the optical transmission line guide hole is open to the outside on the optical semiconductor element mounting surface; and the first resin is provided so that islands spaced from each other are formed on the optical semiconductor element mounting surface.
