Realization of optical fibers terminated with ball lenses

In this article the process of realization of ball-lensed optical fibers is described. The implementation of four different types of ball-lensed optical fibers developed in Optical Fibers Techniques Laboratory at Lodz University of Technology is presented. Focal lengths of the presented microlenses, which were obtained in simulations and measurements, are also shown in this paper.
