  • Optical carrier
    Publication number: 20020134750
    Abstract: A method of making an optical device on a carrier plate involves defining on one side of the carrier plate electrical contacts and through-holes for guide pins by a photolithographic process. The components are then mounted on the contacts and the guide pins of are mounted through the through-holes, using the through-holes as guides.

  • Optical coupling
    Publication number: 20020126964
    Abstract: An optical connector includes a supporting block, a pair of guide pins protruding from the supporting block for mating with a connecting component, and an array of active optical components recessed into the supporting block so that a void is present between the active optical components and optic fibers carried by the connecting component. A transparent filler material the void and provides a light path between the active optical components and the optic fibers.
