Abstract
An optical fiber guide structure includes a guide member that is configured to be erected on a connection end surface of an optical waveguide device and forms a space for accommodating a leading end portion of an optical fiber to be connected to the optical waveguide device. The guide member is formed of an elastically deformable material, and in a specific region a longitudinal direction of the guide member, and a diameter of an inscribed circle in contact with an inner wall of the guide member in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction is smaller than an outer diameter of the optical fiber.
