One Step Fiber End-Face Polishing Process

Disclosed is a one step fiber optic connector polishing method. The method is a sequence of processes that may include severing a fiber ( 100 ) length projecting out of the end face ( 106 ) of a ferrule ( 102 ) having a pre-shaped surface, such that the residual fiber length does not exceed 80 micro...

Zusammenfassung:	Disclosed is a one step fiber optic connector polishing method. The method is a sequence of processes that may include severing a fiber ( 100 ) length projecting out of the end face ( 106 ) of a ferrule ( 102 ) having a pre-shaped surface, such that the residual fiber length does not exceed 80 microns. Cleaning ferrule ( 102 ) end face ( 106 ) such that no residual debris are left on it. Polishing fiber end-face ( 140 ) only, on a finishing polishing film ( 180 ) until fiber end-face ( 140 ) and ferrule end-face ( 106 ) are in a relation that ensures the desired fiber undercut or protrusion.
