ABSTRACT:
The end of a glass fibre of the graded or at least stepped, index type, or in the case of a clad fibre, the end of its core, is etched with an etchant which varies in etching power according to the composition, and thus in a graded or stepped - index fibre according to the index, of the fibre - core material, thereby producing at the end of the fibre a recess or "well" whose depth increases from the edge towards the axis of the fibre.
