Abstract
There are provided a manufacturing method of an optical device excellent in expediency, and a technique for stably manufacturing a high performance optical device. After a single crystal film which constitutes a Faraday rotator and can exhibit a substantially rectangular magnetic hysteresis, is obtained, the single crystal film is magnetized in a state where this single crystal film is incorporated in an optical device such as an optical isolator. By performing a magnetizing step after the Faraday rotator is incorporated in the optical device, it becomes unnecessary to discriminate between the front and back surfaces of the single crystal film, and the characteristics of the optical device are also improved.
