摘要:
An optical switch has at least first, second, and third optical fibers disposed generally parallel to each other and spaced at non-equal intervals in a direction substantially perpendicular to an optical axis of each of the optical fibers. The optical fibers have tip portions disposed approximately along a straight line extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to the optical axis of each of the optical fibers. A first non-movable guiding structure guides a beam of light emitted from the first optical fiber to the second optical fiber along a first optical path disposed between the tip portion of the first optical fiber and the tip portion of the second optical fiber. A second movable guiding structure guides the beam emitted from the first optical fiber to the third optical fiber along a second optical path disposed between the tip portion of the first optical fiber and the tip portion of the third optical fiber so that a length of the second optical path is substantially equal to a length of the first optical path.
摘要:
A piezoelectric device has a piezoelectric vibration element mounted in a package wherein the piezoelectric vibration element comprises two stick-like vibration legs; a central leg provided between the two vibration legs; a coupling portion that couples one end of each of the two vibration legs and one end of the central leg; and a protrusion portion that is coupled to another end of the central leg, has a predetermined angle, neither 0 nor 180 degrees, to the length direction of the central leg, and extends into a direction not interfering with the driving legs. In making the piezoelectric device smaller and thinner, this configuration avoids interference between a support point on the central leg, provided for supporting the vibration element, and conductive electrodes, improves insulation between the conductive electrodes, and reduces the generation of short-circuits between the conductive electrodes.

A formation method of a coating that coats a coated body with the coating includes: generating cylindrical plasma in a vacuum deposition chamber as well as supplying material gas into the vacuum deposition chamber; applying pulse voltage to the coated body; and attaching a shield member that shields an uncoated member to an uncoated part where the coating of the coated body is not formed with separation spacing over a coated part where the coating is to be formed for preventing decrease of hardness of the coating in the coated part.

摘要:
The end face of an optical fiber assembly consisting of an optical fiber s and a ferrule f is polished to form a conical surface with oblique faces Fp1 and Fp2 such that, central axis Ap of the conical surface makes an inclination of 8.degree. with respect to the optical axis L of the optical fiber s, top Ft of the conical surface coincides with the optical axis L of the optical fiber s, and has a taper angle of 2.degree.. Thereafter, the optical fiber assembly is further polished to form an oblique convex spherical surface at the end face such that, the central axis of the oblique convex spherical surface makes an inclination of 8.degree. with respect to the optical axis L of the optical fiber s. Due to this, insertion loss and light reflected back to the source is stabilized and minimized.
摘要:
End face of a ferrule 100 is polished to form a conical surface 3 such that, central axis Ap of said conical surface 3 makes an inclination of 8.degree. with respect to central axis L of optical fiber insertion hole 4, top 3t of said conical surface 3 coincides with said central axis L and has a taper angle of 2.degree.. Because of this, while polishing an end of a optical fiber inserted and fixed inside said optical fiber insertion hole 4, a well balanced oblique spherical surface can be formed and the non-coincidence of the center of said oblique convex surface with the point where said oblique convex surface intersect with the optical axis of said optical fiber can be prevented.
