| Abstract(in English) | Optical connectors for printed circuit board interfaces are required for the implementation of high-density multi-fiber connection. We have developed a 16-fiber fiber physical contact (FPC) connector to meet this requirement. In the FPC connector, two arrays of fibers are aligned in micro-holes without ferrules, and contact is maintained by the pressure generated by the elasticity of the fibers. A micro-hole array is a key component as regards the optical performance of the FPC connector. We developed a 16-ch micro-hole array composed of injection molded zirconia ceramics. In the micro-hole array, the individual inner diameter of the micro-holes is from 125 to 126 μm. The micro-hole has a tapered opening to allow the easy insertion of a fiber. We confirmed that the FPC connector performs well by utilizing the developed ceramic micro-hole array. |
