Abstract

Arsenic chalcogenide microlenses (As2S3) produced by an original procedure have been used for focusing the red – infrared laser light direct through an optical fiber. The microlenses with diameter in the range 150 – 400 m were glued on the optical single-mode fiber ends by Canada balm under optical microscope. The focusing effect of the microlenses was investigated in a stereomicroscope, and the focusing quality was studied with the radiation of a He-Ne laser..
