Abstract:The alignment issue with optical fibers is very important in optoelectronics packaging. A slight offset in any direction could severely affect the optical performance of photonic devices. Nowadays passive alignment of optical fiber has become popular due to its low cost and short processing time. The self-alignment property is another advantage of passive alignment.A recent study states that the dispensing volume and the viscosity are the main factors affecting the yield of passive alignment. On the other hand… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
