Abstract:
An optical connector ferrule according to an embodiment includes: holding holes into which optical waveguiding members, each of which has a GRIN lens, an optical fiber, and a fusion part that connects the GRIN lens and the optical fiber, are inserted; a ferrule end face at which the holding holes open and which faces a counterpart connector; and stepped parts with which the fusion parts of the optical waveguiding members inserted into the holding holes are aligned.

Claim (Index 3):
The optical connector ferrule according to  claim 2 , wherein:\n the first optical waveguiding member is a GRIN lens, the second optical waveguiding member is an optical fiber, and the connecting part is a fusion part that fuses the GRIN lens and the optical fiber; the GRIN lens is inserted into the small diameter part, and is exposed at the ferrule end face; a diameter of the fusion part is larger than a diameter of the GRIN lens; a diameter of the small diameter part is smaller than the diameter of the fusion part, and is larger than the diameter of the GRIN lens; and a diameter of the large diameter part is larger than the diameter of the fusion part.
