One of the most difficult assembly tasks ever introduced into commercial manufacturing is the sub-micron alignment and attachment of a fiber-optic to a laser diode or other optical waveguide. Consequently, many questions arise about how to specify and ultimately verify the performance of the positioning system(s) that will guide these microscopic elements successfully into alignment. Proper alignment is critical to assuring the long-term performance of fiber-optic components.
