Optical mount substrate, optical module, optical transmitter-receiver, optical transmitter-receiver system, and manufacturing method of optical mount substrate

Abstract

An optical mount substrate and a manufacturing method of the optical mount substrate. An optical fiber guide section for arranging and fixing an optical transfer section, having an optical waveguide or an optical fiber, is formed. An electrical conductivity member is embedded in the optical mount substrate so that it penetrates a first principal plane of an arrangement section for arranging an optical device optically connected with the optical waveguide or the optical fiber on the first principal plane, and a second principal plane of the arrangement section parallel to the first principal plane. The optical fiber guide section and the arrangement section are formed by pressing a mold member to a heated and softened substrate to transfer inversion geometry of the mold member onto the substrate. The electrical conductivity member, having a predetermined shape, is directly pressed onto the heated and softened substrate to embed it into the substrate.
