PASSIVE SELF-ALIGNMENT TECHNIQUE FOR ARRAY LASER TRANSMITTERS ANDRECEIVERS FOR FIBER OPTIC APPLICATIONS
|
| Abstract: |
A method of terminating multiple optical fibers, by placing terminal ends of the fibers into a connector to create a fiber end face array, locating a plurality of optical devices (22) on a substrate (18) in an array having a matching geometry as the fiber end face array, and positioning the connector with respect to the substrate to align the fiber end face array with the optical device array. The optical device substrate (18) can be formed as part of a fiber termination fixture which further includes a carrier (24) having two holes adapted to receive respective alignment pins of the connector. The optical device substrate is advantageously affixed to the carrier by forming solder ball contact arrays |
