ABSTRACT:
A collimator for use with an optical fibre includes a holder for the fibre, the holder having a V-shaped recess at the bottom of which the fibre is held in place. The collimator also includes an optical member able to transform a light beam from the fibre into a parallel beam, the optical member being fixed with respect to the holder. The holder and the optical member are precisely positioned with respect to one another in order to minimize, at a given distance from the optical member, the cross-section of a beam from the fibre which has been transformed by the optical member. The collimator also has a support which can be fitted into the recess so that holder can be adapted to the support, so that it can control the direction of the beam from the fibre which has been transformed by the optical member.
