Abstract

Se describe un modulo optico para interconectar dos o más fibras opticas que tiene un elemento de guía de ondas microrreplicado el cual se forma integralmente sobre el mismo sustrato con un elemento de empalme. En una modalidad, el modulo tiene tres placas, una placa inferior, una placa de cubierta y una placa superior, todas contenidas dentro de una alojamiento comun, La placa inferior tiene ranuras que reciben a la fibra y ranuras de alineacion de la fibra en sus extremos, las ranuras de alineacion de la fibra están alineadas con los canales de la guía de ondas formados sobre la porcion central de la placa inferior. La placa de cubierta se utiliza cuando se forman los nucleos de los canales de la guía de ondas, para forzar al material de la guía de ondas, curable, residual, a los canales de flujo adyacentes a los canales de la guía de ondas y este material, cuando es cura o solidifica, adhiere a las placas inferior y de cubierta conjuntamente. La placa superior es utilizada para sujetar a las fibras las cuales se retienen en las ranuras de alineacion de la fibra, con el centro de las fibras alienado con el nucleo de los canales de la guía de ondas. El alojamiento del modulo incluye cuñas las cuales se pueden accionar independientemente para asegurar a las fibras de una manera reacoplable ya sea a un extremo u otro del modulo.
