Abstract(in English) Optical backplane technology has been required for high-speed data communication system, especially in low cost and practical point of view. We report here our recent study on optical fiber board, which is an essential element in optical backplane system because of its low loss and high-speed data transmission ability. The use of high delta and small diameter optical fiber (clad dia. = 80 μm, core dia. = 5.5 μm) effectively attains high density optical fiber routing because of its very small bending radius. To connect small diameter fibers to standard communication fibers (core dia. = 10 μm), TEC (Thermally diffused Expanded Core) technology was also developed for simultaneous fusion splicing of multi-channel fibers with different core diameters. For right angle coupling between fibers and optical waveguides/ devices, 45-degree edge treated self-written waveguides are formed at the edge of optical fibers. Convex-shaped MT ferules are newly constructed for dust prevention and easy cleaning during repeated insertion/withdrawal operation; such ferule can be used as previously developed fiber right-angle bending connectors for fiber board. Plastic optical fiber (POF) is also used for fiber board; one-third processing time reduction was achieved with newly employed connector fabrication process.
