Une partie de rainure est formée sur une ligne d'extension du guide d'ondes optique dans une direction d'extension et s'étend dans la direction d'extension du guide d'ondes optique, la rainure en V (16) a une section en forme de V orthogonale à la direction de plan du substrat de guide d'ondes optique (12), et la profondeur de la forme en V de la rainure en V (16) est réglée de telle sorte que le noyau d'une fibre optique (20) disposée dans la rainure en V (16) coïncide avec le noyau du guide d'ondes optique.
