To couple laser light to or from the optical waveguide (3) with as little loss as possible the laser, diode (2) must be precisely aligned with respect to the core region (22) of the end face (14) of the optical waveguide. In conventional modules, this requires costly and complicated mechanical couplers, which nevertheless do not have the necessary long-term stability. To solve the problem of how to provide a low-cost laserto-fiber coupling which exhibits long-term stability the optical module (1) is provided with a control facility (16, 17, 18) which controls the coupling of light on …
