ABSTRACT:
The arrangement for coupling optoelectronic components and optical waveguides to one another includes a carrier substrate (11); at least one optoelectronic component (9) or one optical waveguide (1) secured on the carrier substrate (11) and at least one lens (8) provided with an essentially planar surface and a spherical surface located opposite the essentially planar surface. The carrier substrate is provided with a depression (5) for a lens (8) having walls and the lens (8) is inserted into the depression (5) so that the lens (8) rests with its spherical surface contacting the walls of the depression (5) at at least 3 points and is rotatable about its spherical curvature center point. An adjustment device for rotatably positioning the lens (8) in the depression and a method of securing the lens in position after an adjustment are described.
