摘要： Simultaneous thermal forming of a ferrule and optical fiber as part of a ferrule assembly to thermally form an optical surface in the ferrule assembly. Related fiber optic components, connectors, assemblies, and methods are disclosed. In certain embodiments, the ferrule assembly is comprised of a ferrule and an optical fiber having an end portion extending from an end face of the ferrule. The ferrule may be made from a material or material composition having the same or similar thermal energy absorption characteristics as the optical fiber disposed in the ferrule. Thus, when the end face of the ferrule and an end portion of an optical fiber are simultaneously exposed to a wavelength(s) of a laser beam emitted by a laser, at least a portion of the end face of the ferrule and end portion of the optical fiber are both thermally formed together to form an optical surface.

摘要： Embodiments disclosed herein include ferrule assemblies employing mechanical interfaces for optical fibers and related component and methods. The ferrule assemblies may be used in fiber optic connectors to precisely position the optical fiber relative to the ferrule to facilitate an optical connection with another optical device. In certain embodiments disclosed herein, the ferrule assemblies include a ferrule that includes an inner surface forming a ferrule bore. Each of the ferrules may also include an end portion of an optical fiber disposed in the ferrule bore. The inner surface of the ferrule bore abuts against an outer surface of the optical fiber to form a mechanical interface. In this manner, the mechanical interface secures the optical fiber within the ferrule bore and precisely positioned relative to the ferrule. This mechanical interface may eliminate the need for epoxy or other means to secure the optical fiber within the ferrule bore.

摘要： Head-on laser shaping of optical surfaces on optical fibers, related assemblies and methods are disclosed. By “head-on laser shaping,” a laser beam is directed in a laser beam path collinear or substantially collinear to the longitudinal fiber axis of an end portion of an optical fiber. The end face of the end portion of optical fiber is exposed to the laser beam to laser shape a polished optical surface in the end face of the optical fiber. In this manner, the entire surface area of the end face of the optical fiber can be exposed to the laser beam during laser shaping, making it unnecessary unless desired, to rotate the optical fiber or laser beam during laser processing. The cross section energy distribution of the laser beam can also be controlled to laser shape an optical surface in the end face of the optical fiber of the desired geometry.

摘要： Gradient-index (GRIN) lens fabrication employing laser pulse width duration control, and related components, systems, and methods are disclosed. GRIN lenses can be fabricated from GRIN rods by controlling the pulse width emission duration of a laser beam emitted by a laser to laser cut the GRIN rod, as the GRIN rod is disposed in rotational relation to the laser beam. Controlling laser pulse width emission duration can prevent or reduce heat accumulation in the GRIN rod during GRIN lens fabrication. It is desired that the end faces of GRIN lenses are planar to facilitate light collimation, easy bonding or fusing of the GRIN lens to optical fibers to reduce optical losses, polishing to avoid spherical aberrations, and/or cleaning the end faces when disposed in a fiber optic connector, as non-limiting examples.

摘要： Laser-based methods of stripping different types of fiber optic cables (100) are disclosed. The method includes directing a focused laser beam (202) onto the cable's protective cover (114). The method also includes moving the fiber optic cable relative to the focused laser beam in a direction substantially along a central axis (AC) to form a substantially axially oriented groove (250) in the protective cover, wherein the groove does not reach one or more optical fibers (110) carried by the cable. The method can further include opening the protective cover at the groove to form a split protective cover portion (114S), and removing the split protective cover portion from the fiber optic cable. Methods of stripping a cable by forming two grooves in the protective cover using two focused laser beams are also disclosed.
