ABSTRACT:
An optical fibre is secured to an electronic package (10) by, firstly, providing in a wall (14) of the package (10) an electrically conductive tube (12), an inductance arrangement (16–22) in magnetically co-operational relation to the tube (12) and a securing agent inside the tube, then secondly inserting the fibre into the tube (12) and passing an RF current through the inductance arrangement (16). The current is such as to melt the securing agent and, when the securing agent is allowed to cool, a bond is formed between the fibre and the tube (12). The package (10) is preferably an LTCC mulilayer package with the inductance (16) being formed in adjacent layers and the tube (12) is preferably composed of a metallic ink which is applied to a stepwise-circular cylindrical cavity likewise formed in adjacent layers.
