Abstract

The invention aims to provide a single-core bidirectional optical communication module (1), so as to achieve light output with high precision by adjusting an incident angle of lights that are emitted to a wavelength limiting filter (21) to be lower than an allowable error angle. An angle formed by the wavelength limiting filter (21) and an optical axis of a first lens (71) is adjusted by arranging the wavelength limiting filter (21) at a prescribed angle relative to a plane orthogonal to the optical axis of the first lens (71). In addition, the wavelength limiting filter (21) is adjusted around the optical axis of the first lens (71) by rotating the wavelength limiting filter (21) around the optical axis of the first lens (71). In this way, the incident angle of lights that are emitted to the wavelength limiting filter (21) is adjusted to be lower than an allowable error angle.
