Abstract:
The embodiment relates to an optical connection component including a bent optical fiber having a bent portion including a region where a curvature of the bent portion is maintained at 0.4 [l/mm] or more while substantially no bending stress remains. The bent optical fiber comprises a core, a first cladding, a second cladding, and a third cladding. Based on the third cladding, a relative refractive index difference Δ1 of the core, a relative refractive index difference Δ2 of the first cladding, and a relative refractive index difference Δ3 of the second cladding satisfy relationships of Δ1>Δ2>Δ3 and Δ3<−0.5[%]. The product V3 of the Δ3 and a cross-sectional area S of the second cladding is less than −200[%·μm 2 ]. The curvature in the bent portion is 0.6 [l/mm] or less over an entire length of the bent portion.

Claim (Index 2):
The optical connection component according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the bent optical fiber at least includes the bent portion, a first section formed continuously with at one end of the bent portion, the curvature in the first section being 0.1 [l/mm] or less, and a second section formed continuously with at the other end of the bent portion, the curvature in the second section being 0.1 [l/mm] or less, and where an angle formed by two straight lines extending along the first section and the second section is 0, the first section and the second section being positioned on both sides of the bent portion, insertion loss of the bent optical fiber at a wavelength of 1.31 [\u03bcm] is 0.01\u00d7\u03b8 [dB] or less.
