A material for an optical circuit-electrical circuit mixedly mounting
substrate comprises a light permeable resin layer, and an optical circuit
forming layer that is made of a light permeable resin of which refractive
index increases (or decreases) when irradiated with an activating energy
beam and is disposed adjacent to the light permeable resin layer,
wherein a refractive index of a portion of the optical circuit forming
layer is higher (or lower) than that of the light permeable resin layer
when the material for the optical circuit-electrical circuit mixedly
mounting substrate is irradiated with an activating energy beam so that
said portion is irradiated.
