Abstract:
An optical power monitor device includes a first optical fiber, including a core and a cladding surrounding the core and being at least one of an incidence-side optical fiber and a launch-side optical fiber connected to each other at a connection point, which is constituted by a curve portion and a linear portion between the curve portion and the connection point, a low refractive index layer that is provided in at least a portion of the linear portion on an outer side of the cladding and has a refractive index lower than a refractive index of the cladding, and a first optical detector that is provided at a position close to at least the curve portion.
