Fiberguide Industries designs and manufactures the highest precision MxN arrays found on the market today. Typical uses for arrays are optical switching, astronomical analysis and military mapping.
Features
More than 1500 arrays manufactured to date.
All arrays meet or exceed Telcordia GR-1221-CORE: Reliability Qualification Requirements for Passive Optical
Components.
Each array is manufactured to the customer’s own unique application and/or specification.
Center-to-center pitch can be from 150 microns to 5mm.
Designed utilizing single mode, polarization maintaining, macro bend, or multimode fibers.
Arrays are manufactured using highly precision etched silicon wafer V-Groove technology providing exceptional
control of fiber-to-fiber pitch and linearity, in conjunction with a silicon lid enabling sub-micron accuracy. The
V-Groove chips provide a multi-fiber housing that is exceedingly lightweight, low profile and highly robust,
designed for next generation high performance photonic devices.
The V-Groove array assemblies are available with Single Mode, Multimode and Polarization Maintaining (PM)
fibers, precise passive alignment of individual fibers, fan-out arrays or fiber ribbons to standard industry
connectors, custom fiber spacing and angled polish end-face in vertical or horizontal direction, hermetic seal
and ...
