Abstract
An optical connector system includes: an optical path-changing device including a fiber-holding part that holds a single-mode optical fiber along a first direction, and a reflection surface that reflects an optical signal; and a relay device on a substrate. The substrate includes a grating coupler for inputting/outputting an optical signal in a second direction that is inclined with respect to a direction perpendicular to a surface of the substrate. The optical path-changing device and the relay device each have an input/output surface to/from which the optical signal is inputted/outputted. A first convex lens is disposed on the input/output surface of the optical path-changing device. A second convex lens is disposed on the input/output surface of the relay device.
