Abstract
The present invention is related to a laser diode module and a fabricating method therefor, which facilitates the fabrication of the laser diode module in a short time with a low manufacturing cost and high long term reliability. The laser diode module is formed by optically aligning a lens formed fiber disposed within a ferrule to a laser diode element. Ferrule fixing parts are utilized to hold the ferrule in place and are secured in position using a YAG laser welding process.
