28、rrules is defined as the angle between the plane perpendicular to the axis of the ferrule and the plane of the flat endface. The endface angle for spherically polished angled endface ferrules is the angle between the plane perpendicular to the axis of the ferrule and the straight line tangent to the
29、 polished surface at the fibre core in the direction of the nominal angle (see figure 1).

31、 method; - method 3: mechanical profilometer method; - method 4: reflected light method. 2.1 Method 1 - Automatic interferometric method Due to its greater accuracy, method 1 is considered to be the reference method. In this method, the ferrule endface is placed in a tiltable micropositioner under a
32、 microscope with in terfero m e tri c capa b i I i ty . NOTE - A fixed holder at the nominal value of the angle that has to be measured may be used, but in this case the alignment procedure described is not applicable and it is necessary to use a reference angled plug measured with other methods. Fi
33、gure 2 - Example of set-up of angle measurement by means of interferometer Phase differences between the reference wavefront and the wavefront from the surface of the ferrule under test create a fringe pattern. The ferrule is tilted by a micropositioner at the nominal value 0, of the angle that has
34、to be measured. For a convex polished ferrule, the curvature radius R and the apex offset component in the direction of the angle Ex are measured from the analysis of the interferometric pattern (see figure 3). The value of the angle is evaluated from the values of R and E,. Fringes centre Interfero

36、he angle direction (see figure 4), that is, from the number of waves in the length unit IiA. Figure 4 - Example of interference pattern of a flat polished ferrule 2.2 Method 2 - Manual interferometric method As in method 1, the ferrule endface is placed in a tiltable micropositioner under a microsco
37、pe with interferometric capability. In this method, however, the ferrule is tilted by a micro- positioner until the surface of the endface is normal to the optical axis of the interferometer: this happens when the real value of the angle is reached. In the case of a convex polished ferrule endface,
38、this position is reached when the interference rings and the fibre are both symmetrical to the rotation axis (see figure 5). In the case of a flat polished ferrule, this position is reached when the interference fringes disappear or are at a minimum number. Fringes centre . Interferometric fringes R

40、e endface angle is evaluated by profiling the endface ferrule with a surface analyser. The ferrule is placed in a fixed holder under the stylus of mechanical profilometer. The ferrule axis shall be parallel to the stylus axis and the plug shall be positioned with the angle in the direction of the st

43、suitable length L may be between 20 cm and 50 cm and may be recorded in the test result. Figure 6 - Example of Set-up for ferrule endface angle measurement In the case of a flatly polished ferrule endface, the spot pattern is typically a small visible, approximately uniformly illuminated circle show
44、ing little additional divergence of the laser beam. In the case of a spherically polished ferrule endface, the pattern is typically a small ring (Airy disk) located at the centre of a large visible circle of beam diverged from the original laser beam (see figure 7). This small ring results from Frau
45、nhofer diffraction of the He-Ne beam reflected from the spherical ferrule endface containing a fibre or fibre hole as a centrally located aperture. Ring Circle IEC 1053/99 Figure 7 - Typical spot pattern The ferrule endface angle g is determined by measuring the deviation angle of the He-Ne beam mea
46、sured to the centre of the visible circle or ring of the spot pattern as the ferrule is rotated around its axis. The reflected beam resolution will be affected by the surface finish of the ferrule endface. This surface shall be polished to a sufficient level to form a well defined specular reflectio
