摘要:
An optical functioning component has a tubular housing with a front end side having substantially the same shape as that of a front end of a removable plug housing of an optical connector plug. A rear end side of the tubular housing has a shape configured for connection to the optical connector plug when the plug housing is removed from the optical connector plug. A ferrule is provided on the front end side of the tubular housing and has a mechanism capable of attenuating, cutting-off, reflecting or absorbing a specific wavelength of light. An optical connection sleeve is connected to an end of the ferrule. A frame supports the ferrule and the optical connection sleeve and is mounted in the tubular housing for undergoing axial movement therein by a preselected amount.

An optical fiber end face polishing apparatus has an inspection unit for introducing light into the optical fiber and detecting light from an end of the optical fiber, a moving unit for relatively moving the polishing member and the optical fiber in three directions and in a rotating direction, and a coordinate acquiring unit for acquiring a position of the polishing member while detecting the return light. A boundary between the core and clad of the optical fiber is detected with the inspection unit in at least three directions from the outer circumference of end face in its radial direction while polishing toward its axial center. The position of the center of the core is acquired as a coordinate value, and polishing is performed using the center position of the core as a reference.

摘要:
A method of polishing the end face of a ferrule on an optical connector comprises providing a polishing sheet containing abrasive grains and providing a polishing fluid containing abrasive grains having a hardness greater than that of the abrasive grains of the polishing sheet. The end face of the ferrule including an optical fiber is pressed against a surface of the polishing sheet while effecting relative movement between the ferrule and the polishing sheet and while supplying the polishing fluid onto the surface of the polishing sheet.

摘要:
A photovoltaic device, wherein a non-crystalline semiconductor layer of one conductivity type formed on a single crystal or a polycrystalline semiconductor substrate of the opposite conductivity type is annealed thereby to change the non-crystalline semiconductor to a polycrystalline semiconductor, with a pn junction plane formed therebetween. The depth of the junction plane is 500 .ANG. or less from the light incident surface of the polycrystallized semiconductor. Moreover, the light incidence surface can be made uneven by increasing the growth rate of the non-crystalline semiconductor.
