    Abstract: Disclosed is an optical fiber gyroscope comprising a fiber coil composed of a lengthy optical fiber wound therearound in a predetermined number of turns, a coupler for optically coupling an optical fiber led from a light source and an optical fiber led to a photodetector, and an optical IC chip arranged between the fiber coil and the coupler and provided with a phase modulator and a polarizer mounted on an optical waveguide, the optical fiber gyroscope further comprising a fiber coil reel around which the lengthy optical fiber for constructing the fiber coil is wound in the predetermined number of turns, a coupler reel around which the optical fibers led in both directions from the coupler are wound in a predetermined number of turns, and a housing member including a plurality of compartments (reel-placing region, frame, frame) for accommodating at least the both reels, the light source, and the optical IC chip. Accordingly, the optical fiber gyroscope can be easily assembled in unit, and it is possible to effectively reduce the production cost of the optical fiber gyroscope.

    Abstract: An optical unit or an optical sensor through which a light beam is propagated in a predetermined direction, having an optical component (2) which includes at least one first single crystal element (2R) each having a property of causing dextrorotation of a plane of polarization of the light beam during propagation of the beam, and at least one second single crystal element (2L) each having a property of causing levorotation of the plane of polarization of the light beam. The first and second single crystal elements (2R, 2L) are superposed on each other in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the beam. The single crystal elements (2R, 2L) may be bonded together by direct solid-solid reaction, or by diffusion of a material of a thin bonding film interposed between the adjacent single crystal elements. The single crystal elements also exhibit a magnetooptical or Faraday effect when used in a magnetic-field sensor, for example.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To increase the connection strength between the optical waveguide substrate and a fixing member without using any reinforcing plate and to improve the connection strength when they area left as they are under high- temperature, high-humidity conditions and applied with a thermal shock in a connection body of the optical waveguide substrate and at least one optical fiber fixing member having an optical fiber fixing groove. SOLUTION: The optical waveguide substrate 2 is formed between a couple of end surfaces where optical waveguide are exposed, and a couple of main surfaces and a couple of flanks which are formed between the couple of end surfaces. Fixing member 3A has a connection-side end surface 3a, an external end surface on the opposite side from the connection-side end surface, and a couple of main surfaces and a couple of flanks 3c. A step part 4A is formed between one end surface 2a to which the end surface 2a of the substrate 2 and the end surface 3a of the fixing member 3A are connected with an adhesive layer 20 formed of a resin adhesive and the connection-side end surface 3a and a meniscus part 21 which connects with the adhesive layer 20 and is formed of a resin adhesive is formed at the step part 4A.
