FILE, THIS AMENDED TRANSLATION 11 For the cutting of an optical fiber (2), it is known to scratch a fiber (2) which is stabilized under tensile stress against evasive movements on its circumference so that the microdiscontinuity formed in this way propagates diametrically, forming a cut surface. In this connection there is the danger of an undesired propagation of the crack or discontinuity in the axial direction of the fiber (2). In accordance with the invention, the cut surface is produced by a particle beam (21) which is directed against the fiber (2).
