Development of optical coupling technologies with simple alignment and a high coupling efficiency is required for optical interconnection. As a simple coupling technology, we have investigated a scheme of applying optical pins with a 45-deg mirror on the tip of conventional MMF (Multi Mode Fiber). We have proposed two new technologies using Self-Written Waveguide (SWW) which enable easy fabrication of optical pins. One is a method for an optical pin on the end face of fiber. An SWW optical pin having a 45-deg mirror was successfully fabricated on a tip of MMF. The 90-deg light path conversion efficiency was measured and its effectiveness was confirmed. The other is a method for micro SWW optical pins. An optical pin with a length as short as 160 mm was fabricated just on the emitting point of VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser).
