METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING MULTICORE-OPTICAL-FIBER CONNECTOR AND MULTICORE OPTICAL FIBER

摘要

The present invention relates to an MCF and others with a structure for accurately aligning each of core arrangement directions of one or more MCFs to be fixed in a connector. Each of the MCFs has a marker as an index for rotational position. The ends of the MCFs are rotated while monitoring positions of the respective markers with a CCD camera or the like, whereby each of the core arrangement directions is aligned with a specific direction.
