<p>[Problem] To provide an optical fiber connector between a multicore fiber and a single mode fiber. [Solution] The present invention relates to an optical fiber connector between a multicore fiber and a single mode fiber. The optical fiber connector has a first lens (15), a second lens (17), and a lens array (19). The emission light from a plurality of cores (13a, 13b) included in a multicore fiber (11) is incident on the first lens (15). The emission light from the first lens (15) is incident on the second lens (17). The emission light from the second lens (17) is incident on the lens array (19). The emission light from constituent lenses (21a, 21b, 21c) included in the lens array (19) is incident on corresponding single mode fibers (23a, 23b, 23c). Thus, the optical fiber connector according to the present invention is capable of optically connecting a multicore fiber and a single mode fiber.</p> |
