Abstract
On a top face (24a) of a base member (3), V-shaped grooves (15a) and (23a) are provided. On a reverse face (24b) of a base member (3), V-shaped grooves (15b) and (23b) are provided. The V-shaped grooves (15a) and (15b), which are first V-shaped grooves and are for holding optical fibers, and the V-shaped grooves (23a) and (23b), which are second V-shaped grooves and are for holding electrode rods (7), are formed facing each other, respectively. The positions of optical fibers and the electrode rods (7) are determined by the V-shaped grooves (15a) and (15b) and the V-shaped grooves (23a) and (23b), respectively.
