ABSTRACT:
A fixture for aligning and affixing an optical fiber, including a core surrounded by a cladding layer and having an end with a taper, to an optical device, having an active area larger than a cross-section of the core of the optical fiber. The fixture includes a base with a receptacle defined therein. The receptacle extends through the base from a first side to a second side and is substantially larger than a cross-section of the optical fiber at the first side. The receptacle is smaller than a cross-section of the optical fiber and at least as large as the cross-section of the core of the optical fiber at the second side. The base further defines a tapered area in the receptacle with a taper approximately equal to the taper of the end of the optical fiber.
