Abstract

Verfahren zum Verbinden einer optischen Faser (1) mit einer GRIN-Linse (2) sowie ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines optischen Filtermoduls mit einer optischen Faser (1) und einer GRIN-Linse (2) umfassend das Anordnen der optischen Faser (1) in Kontakt mit oder in unmittelbarer Nähe zur GRIN-Linse (2), das Richten eines Laserstrahls (9) auf einen Teil der optischen Faser (1) und/oder einen Teil der GRIN-Linse (2), wobei durch den Laserstrahl zumindest ein Teil der optischen Faser (1) und/oder ein Teil der GRIN-Linse (2) derart erwärmt wird, dass es zu einer Verbindung zwischen der optischen Faser (1) und GRIN-Linse (2) kommt und wobei die optische Achse des Laserstrahls schräg zur optischen Achse (5) der optischen Faser (1) ausgerichtet ist, sowie verfahrensgemäss hergestellte optische Filtermodule.
