Abstract
A light transmission and reception module includes: a belt-shaped macromolecular optical waveguide film having an optical waveguide, an optical transmitter having a light emitting element and a first sub-mount for holding the light emitting element, for holding one end of the macromolecular optical waveguide film on the first sub-mount so that a light emitted from the light emitting element may be coupled to an incident end surface of the optical waveguide, and an optical receiver having a light detecting element and a second sub-mount for holding the light detecting element, for holding the other end of the macromolecular optical waveguide film on the second sub-mount so that the light emitted from an exit end surface of the optical waveguide may be received in the light detecting element.
