ABSTRACT:
An optical component for bidirectionally coupling an optical fiber with active devices for transmitting and receiving information in the form of electromagnetic radiation. The component comprises an integrally formed body molded of optical quality plastic and having two opposed ends, one of which is adapted to receive an optical fiber and the other the active devices. Between the two ends are symmetrically arranged ellipsoidal and planar reflecting surfaces which define a pair of double folded optical paths, one each from an active device to the optical fiber. The reflecting surfaces operate by total internal reflection and are arranged along with other body surfaces so that the component can be molded without the need for mold side action.
