ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for aligning a lens with an array package holding an optical fiber includes a stage assembly configured to adjustably position the lens relative to the array package. An interferometer has a measurement port in optical communication with the fiber and an output port configured to provide an output signal indicative of a position of the lens relative to the fiber.
