    Abstract: The invention provides an apparatus and method for the active alignment and coupling of separate optical components consisting of a light-emitting component and a light-receiving component. It comprises first alignment means having a relatively lower optical resolving power stage that is adapted to perform coarse alignment of the light-emitting component to locate an approximate location of its point of highest intensity, and second alignment means having a relatively higher optical resolving power stage that is adapted to perform fine alignment of the light-emitting component to locate a more precise location of the said point of highest intensity. Accordingly, coarse alignment may be performed using a multi-mode fiber and fine alignment may be performed using a single-mode fiber that may further be coupled to the light-emitting component.

    Abstract translation: 本发明提供了一种用于主动对准和耦合由发光部件和光接收部件组成的分离的光学部件的装置和方法。 它包括具有相对较低的光学分辨功率级的第一对准装置,其适于执行发光部件的粗略对准以定位其最高强度点的近似位置,以及具有相对较高的光学分辨功率级的第二对准装置 其适于执行发光部件的精细对准以定位所述最高强度点的更精确的位置。 因此,可以使用多模光纤执行粗略对准,并且可以使用可以进一步耦合到发光部件的单模光纤进行精细对准。
