Optical fiber connector assemblies and methods of making the assemblies

摘要

Methods of making assemblies and assemblies for interconnecting optical fibers and use in integrated optical systems. The optical fiber connector assemblies include a pedestal having a step supporting an optical waveguide device having a buried waveguide. End portions of the step support means for receiving cores and cladding of optical fibers with the optical axes of the cores in alignment with the optical axis or axes of the waveguide.
