Abstract
A method for fabricating an optical transmitting apparatus includes steps of: preparing a temporary assembly including a stub device having an optical fiber, a magnetic guide member with a hole, and a holder, an optical connector, and an magnetic alignment member extending in a direction of an axis; applying a magnetic force to the alignment member of the temporary assembly with a magnet device of an electromagnet or a permanent magnet; carrying out optical alignment of the stub device with an optical device by active alignment, the stub device being optically coupled to the optical connector, and; separating the optical connector and the alignment member apart from the stub device. The alignment member is disposed in the hole of the stub device and a guide hole of the optical connector in the temporary assembly such that the alignment member aligns the stub device with the optical connector.
