| Abstract(in English) | Optical fiber is being widely introduced as a communication medium to handle the fiber to the home (FTTH) systems. To construct to the FTTH systems, optical fiber connection technique is required. Many ways of connecting optical fiber including the fusion splice, mechanical splice and optical connector have been developed and are used in the FTTH systems. Conventional connection methods achieve good optical performance by aligning bare glass fibers after their coatings have been removed. However, all these connection methods require the careful handling of bare glass fiber, which is weak and easily broken. In this paper, we propose a new stripping-free connection technique that comprises an alignment technique and a cleaving technique for coated fiber. We achieve a connection loss of 0.2 dB for standard SM (single-mode) fiber with a cladding diameter of 125 μm and a coating diameter of 250 μm. |
