ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for forming a precision three-dimensional surface to clad optical fibers. One embodiment provides means for deforming the fiber end to conform to the geometry of the interstice formed between three tangential and parallel cylinders. The precision three-dimensional fiber end enables accurate low loss coupling between the fibers to be achieved through the accurate reference planes presented.
