An improved method for making an optical fiber terminator that may be effectively used both in production lines and in making stand-alone low-reflection optical terminators. The method has a high repeatability and reliability. The optical fiber terminator may have at least one, but preferably two, fused micro-bends in an optical fiber (102), and the optical fiber may have a cut end that terminates into a protective and/or light-absorbing covering (802). The resulting return loss may be significantly better than for conventional methods of optical fiber termination. |
