The most expensive phase in the manufacture of microoptical components and fiber optics is also one of the most performancecritical: optical alignment of the components. The increasing degree of miniaturization makes this an especially challenging task. Active alignment methods result in higher costs and awkward processes, and for some applications, they simply are not possible. Passive MicroOptical Alignment Methods introduces the passive alignment methods that are currently available and illustrates them with many examples, references, and critiques.The first book dedicated to passive alignment, it begins with an overview of the current activities, requirements, and general results of passive optical alignments, followed by three sections of indepth analysis. The first of these discusses mechanical passive alignment, highlighting silicon waferboard, solder, and 'Jitney' technologies as well as application of mechanical alignment to 3D freespace interconnects. The next section describes the various visual alignment techniques applied to Planar Lightwave Circuits (PLCs) and lowcost plastic and surface mount packaging. The final section details various utilities that aid passive alignment and their resulting tradeoffs and demonstrates Monte Carlo analysis to evaluate the potential of a given method.Passive MicroOptical Alignment Methods provides the tools necessary to meet the challenge of precision and lowcost alignment for applications that require micron or submicron tolerance.
