<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manufacturing method for an optical connector which allows a highly reliable optical connector to be manufactured at a low cost. <P>SOLUTION: In a manufacturing method of an optical connector: an optical fiber whose end is mirror-cut is inserted into an optical fiber insertion hole of a ferrule (a first step); the optical fiber is fixed with its end projecting from an end face of the ferrule by a predetermined length (a second step); the end face of the ferrule and the end face of the optical fiber are cleaned (a third step); and a non-fluent refractive index matching body is disposed on the end face of the ferrule so as to cover the end face of the optical fiber (a fourth step). In the fourth step, for example, a sheet-like refractive index matching body is attached to the end face of the ferrule. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
