Fiber Optic Coupler Injection Molding
A one-piece connector coupler concept has been developed for optical fiber connection. This coupler employs advanced polymeric material and the techniques of injection molding to produce a low-cost, high performance component that exhibits excellent light throughput characteristics. The process involves injecting molten plastic into carefully designed molds under high pressure, ensuring the resulting parts are highly. The study methods include both numerical simulation and experimental observation. As the use of optical fibers increases, a significant need has arisen for low-cost connectors suitable for joining fiber ends together in a way that results in low transmission loss of the optical signal at the joint.
