Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the distance from the heat generated by the thermoelectric conversion element to the fixed surface (21b) for heat dissipation becomes longer, and the heat conduction is slow.
In addition, compared with the first opposite surface (21a), the area of ​​the fixed surface (21b) is limited due to the component specifications of the optical transmission device, and the area of ​​the fixed surface cannot be larger.
As a result, sufficient heat dissipation cannot be performed from the fixed surface (21b)
When operating the laser diode (40) provided on the second insulating substrate side, there is a problem that the temperature of the laser diode (40) cannot be kept at a predetermined temperature with high precision.
