Optical fiber termination structure, optical connection component and hollow-core optical fiber
An optical fiber termination structure including: a hollow-core optical fiber that includes a hollow portion through which light is transmitted; a light transmissive member that covers the hollow portion; and an antireflection mechanism that prevents reflection of the light passing through the light transmissive member. An example of the antireflection mechanism is a plate glass with an antireflection coating applied to both faces thereof. The thickness of the plate glass is preferably 100 m or less. The plate glass is bonded to the end of the hollow-core optical fiber by a jig. An optical connection component is a component in which two plate glasses face each other.
