Characterization of Insert Molded Single Optical-Fiber Connectors Using Ceramic Balls
Summary :
Molded demountable single fiber connectors have been constructed, which contain precision balls within the plug moldings to locate the fiver and to align a pair of plugs. Transmission loss characteristics were examined and fiber placement precision investigated. The samples tested have exhibited less than 0.2 dB losses with index matching and less than 2 µm fiber displacements on an average for ordinary multimode fibers. For practical application, arbitrary diameter plugs using two sorts of balls and premolding plug ferrules were also investigated. The results exhibited high precision and low losses corresponding to the design condition. The molding procedure is simple and needs no complicated alignment mechanisms. These connectors are low in cost and possible to assemble in the field.
