METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING OPTICAL CONNECTION COMPONENT

摘要

The present embodiment of the present invention makes it possible to reduce the height of an optical connection component that includes a bent optical fiber and a fiber fixing component. The fiber fixing component has a structure that limits moving of an optical fiber in the direction orthogonal to the long-side direction of the optical fiber, and with respect to the optical fiber to which the fiber fixing component is attached in a state wherein the fiber fixing component can move along the long-side direction, a bending portion is formed and the bent portion is heated. The fiber fixing member can move in the long-side direction with respect to the bent optical fiber obtained after the heating, and is fixed at a desired position of thus obtained bent optical fiber.
