A glass capillary tube 1 is connected and fixed in a straight line to an
optical component 5 having a substantially rectangular cross-section
perpendicular to an optical axis 4a. Moreover, a top-surface side end
portion 9 and a rear-surface side end portion 8 of an exterior surface 7
of the glass capillary tube 1 are positioned at the same level as the top
surface and the rear surface of the exterior surface of the optical
component 5 in the height-wise direction, respectively, while the central
axis of an insertion hole 3, which is provided in the glass capillary
tube 1 and into which an optical fiber 2 is inserted and fixed, is
matched with the optical axis 4a of the optical component 5.
