Abstract

Previously, a method of incorporating a microlens within a standard fiber optic ferrule was described. In this paper, the micro-rod and wafer fabrication concepts are explained, the wafer mapping/layout processes used to create the microlens substrate are detailed, and packaging in standard ferrules and v-grooves are described along with coupling results.
