Abstract

See full text

In a method of optically connecting an end portion of an optical fibre with an other optical element the end portion of the optical fibre is connected with a lense. The connection is provided by fixing the lense in a connector element, the optical axis of the lense and the axis of a surface of revolution constituting a reference surface of the connector element being thereby provided in a coinciding position. The end portion of the optical fibre is fixed in a sleeve shaped element with the end portion of the fibre in a centered position in relation to a surface of revolution constituting a reference surface of the sleeve shaped element. The sleeve shaped element and the optical fibre fixed therein are then connected with the connector element while said reference surfaces are moved into engagement with each other. Thereby the lense and the end portion of the optical fibre are optically centered in a correct position in relation to each other. (FIG. 1).
