  • Method for fabricating integrated micro spherical lens for optical fiber switch and the device made therefrom
    Patent number: 6621955
    Abstract: The present invention provides a fabrication process for making an integrated micro spherical lens for an optical switch. Through a semiconductor micro imaging process and a wet-etching process of micro electromechanical working, a plurality of V-shape grooves and mesas are formed on the surface of a base. A further micro imaging process, an etching process and a heat tempering process are used to form a micro spherical lens on the mesa, so that an integrated micro spherical lens and fiber array can be precisely arranged.
