Abstract
A connecting structure of an optical fiber to an optical waveguide includes a circular cylindrical holder having a bore with a circular cross-section communicating one end thereof to the other. The protecting layer removal end of the optical fiber is inserted into the bore. An end plane of the protecting layer removal end and a side plane of the holder are co-planar to be connected to an end surface of an optical waveguide.
