Abstract

See full text

A method for generating a diameter-enlarged end on an optical fiber, includes placing a longitudinal subsection of a longitudinal section of the fiber into a heating zone and heating the longitudinal subsection, wherein first and second sides of the longitudinal section on either side of the longitudinal subsection are situated outside the heating zone; compressing the heated longitudinal subsection in a longitudinal direction of the optical fiber; pushing the first side of the longitudinal section toward the heating zone in the longitudinal direction and pulling the second side of the longitudinal section away from the heating zone in the longitudinal direction, wherein the first side of the longitudinal section is pushed to a greater degree than the second side of the longitudinal section is pulled, and generating an optical entry surface of the fiber by cutting the enlarged longitudinal subsection transversely to the longitudinal direction of the fiber.
