Abstract

A light input / output terminal module 100 comprises a jacket tube 110 and a flange 120. A glass portion 20 of the optical fiber is inserted in the center portion thereof. To efficiently remove the leaked light in a cladding 22 to the jacket tube 110, the jacket tube 110 is made of silica glass or the same material as that of the cladding 22. The jacket tube 110 is fixed by fusion splicing or adhesion to the cladding so as to integrally unify the jacket tube 110 and the cladding 22. The beam diameter at the fiber end portion is enlarged by an optical component which fusion bonds the tip end of the optical fiber to the coreless fiber so that the optical power density at the light input / output terminal module is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the structure of an optical input / output port (optical coupling portion) of an optical component, and more particularly relates to the structure of a light input / output port used in a spatial coupling system optical component for high-output light transmission. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a beam conversion device for parallelizing and focusing light. In particular, it relates to a beam conversion device used in an optical component for high-power light transmission capable of enlarging the beam diameter at the end of an optical fiber. Background technique [0002] In recent years, in the field of optical communication systems, in response to the spread of WDM transmission systems capable of large-capacity transmission, higher output of optical power used has been developed, and it is considered that such a trend of higher output (several W level) will continue further up. [0003] In addition, in the...
