Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a fiber-lens arrangement having a fiber array with a substrate provided with a plurality of adjacent, interspaced, parallel, homogeneous V-shaped grooves for receiving and orienting the end sections of a plurality of optical fibers, and a separate lens array which matches the fiber array. The fiber array has, in a common base body, a number of lenses corresponding to the number of optical fibers. The arrangement of said lenses in the base body corresponds to the arrangement of the optical fibers in the V-shaped grooves of the fiber array on the substrate. One such fiber-lens arrangement enables a simple, precise and flexible adjustment to be carried out, using a separate adjusting mechanism for the optical orientation of the lens array on the fiber array, said adjusting means co-operating with the V-shaped grooves of the fiber array.
