Abstract

An experimental technique is reported for the alignment of integrated optic components with single mode optical fibres using optical-time-dom ain reflectom etry. Fresnel reflections monitored at one end are used in the alignment procedure. An integrated optic polarizer is evaluated to demonstrate the usefulness of this approach.
