A Study on the Mathematical Model of Optical Fiber End Profile Using Envelope Theory

Liao, Wei-chen 12 August 2008 (has links)
Using the envelope theory, the mathematical model of the end face profile and the working tool path of a special optical fiber polishing machine is deve- loped in this study. During the polishing process, the polisher is controlled by three parameters including the fiber rotational angle, the height H and the angle between the fiber and polisher. The contact points between the optical fiber and the polishing plate will determine the profile of the fiber end face. The 3-D end face with double-variable curvatures can be fabricated by properly controlling these three parameters. Since the grinding (polishing) material removal rate is related to machining time and normal contact force, the grinding (polishing) tool path and parameters are needed some modification in order to get the precise end profiles. Example of fiber end faces of 2-D elliptical face and 3-D ellipsoid are given to check the developed mathematical model in this study by computer solid modeling.
