    摘要: A cleaving assembly and a method for cleaving a glass rod and end cap having diameters of at least 125 µm and a face at a desired angle greater than 0 degrees are disclosed. The assembly comprises a laser device for emitting a laser beam, a rotating device, and a positioning fixture. The rotating device has a head that rotates about a central axis that is orthogonal to the laser beam. The positioning fixture is operatively mounted to the head and centered axially along the central axis and is also rotatably driven by the rotating device. The positioning fixture has a tapered surface that is transverse to the central axis and that supports the glass rod at a predetermined angle relative to the central axis. Rotation of the positioning fixture about the central axis when the glass rod and end cap is exposed to the laser beam, cleaves the face at the desired angle.

    摘要: An optical input/output device (1) includes: a multicore fiber (10) including transmitting cores (11) and receiving cores (12); first transmitting optical fibers (21), first receiving optical fibers (22), a fan-in/fan-out device (30) that optically couples a core of each of the first transmitting optical fibers (21) and the transmitting core (11) and optically couples a core of each of the first receiving optical fibers (22) and the receiving core (12), and a transmission/reception connector (40) including connector ports that optically couple the cores of the first transmitting optical fibers (21) and transmission ports (101) of a transceiver (100) and optically couples the cores of the first receiving optical fibers (22) and reception ports (102) of the transceiver (100).
