Abstract
An optical module according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a substrate having a base plane, an optical circuit element having an optical waveguide and a reflector, a support member, a photo detector mounted on the base plane, the photo detector including a condenser lens and a light-receiving layer. The light beam travels along an optical path from the reflector to the tangent plane, the optical path having a shortest distance set to be smaller than a preset value, and as viewed from a direction perpendicular to the base plane, the light beam has an optical axis set apart from the top of the condenser lens by an offset distance.
