When applied to optical communication, the connector is usually assembled at its end to form a fiber connector. Please refer to the first and second figures, which are a headgear of a fiber optic connector and a perspective view of assembling a fiber 7 end to the headgear. The headgear set includes a head cover 6 and a head cover 61, and a through hole 62 is formed in the center of the head cover 6 and the head cover handle 61. The optical fiber 7 can be pierced by the through hole 62 of the head cover 61 and the optical fiber 71 of the optical fiber 7 end is passed through the through hole 62. Therefore, the inner diameter of the through hole is larger than the outer diameter of the optical fiber 7 and the optical fiber 71. Therefore, when assembling, the adhesive 63 is placed on the optical fiber 7 and the optical fiber 71, and then the optical fiber 71 is inserted into the through hole 62 to make the adhesive 63 fix the optical fiber 7 and the optical fiber 71 to the head set. Through hole 62 for use. However, when the optical fiber 7 is assembled, there is a very strict requirement for the positioning of the optical fiber 7, that is, the alignment deviation between the center of the optical fiber 7 and the aperture center of the through hole 62 must be less than 5 um, and the optical fiber 7 is fixed by an adhesive 63 as described above. The connecting head, when the optical fiber thread 71 penetrates into the through hole 62, the adhesive may adhere to one side wall of the through hole 62 due to the capillary phenomenon, and the adhesive may be pushed due to the pushing of the optical fiber 71 when it penetrates. 63 has bubble generation, and since the expansion coefficient of the bubble is larger than that of the solid, it is easy to cause the bubble to push the fiber 71, causing the fiber 71 to be displaced, or being pushed by the bubble to be broken, thereby affecting the light transmission characteristics and lowering. The precision of the fiber 7 and the connection to the 201137422 head and the dispensing of the adhesive 63, the precise and complicated process requires not only the use of high-precision assembly equipment, but also the production cost. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to provide a fiber optic connector that can eliminate the conventional dispensing process, and which can accurately fix the optical fiber in the connector to obtain better optical characteristics, and a manufacturing method thereof. . To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a fiber optic connector comprising a connector and at least one fiber integrally formed in the connector. The connection structure of the connector to the optical fiber is at least one blind hole, and the optical fiber is formed in the blind hole. The optical fiber connector further includes at least one transparent heterogeneous substrate. The transparent heterogeneous substrate is integrally formed with the optical fiber at one end of the blind hole of the connector and spaced apart from the blind hole. The transparent heterogeneous substrate is made of transparent glass or plastic. The connecting structure of the connector and the optical fiber is at least one through hole, and the optical fiber is formed in the through hole. In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method of manufacturing a fiber optic connector, comprising the steps of: first placing at least one optical fiber into a mold for forming a connector and setting a position and performing alignment; and then injecting a connection into the mold The raw material of the head; finally, after the connector is solidified, the fiber connector can be separated by opening the mold. In summary, the invention integrally forms the optical fiber and the connecting head, and does not need to additionally apply a binder, thereby avoiding the problem of curing deformation and aperture tolerance of the adhesive, and effectively avoiding the generation of bubbles and reducing the fiber loading connection. A misalignment occurs in the head, so that the optical fiber is accurately fixed in the connector, and a fiber connector having better optical characteristics is obtained.

The arrangement of the transparent heterogeneous substrate 3 can increase the light transmittance 贞 intensity of the fiber connector 1 . The surface of the transparent heterogeneous substrate 3 may be a flat surface, or a curved surface of an optically deflected light ray, or a Fresnel self- or a diffraction pattern surface. The material of the transparent bismuth substrate 3 may be transparent glass or plastic. The connection structure of the connector 1 and the optical fiber 2 may be at least one through hole (not shown), and the optical fiber 2 is formed in the through hole. The manufacturing method of the optical fiber connector 1 includes the following steps: First, At least one optical fiber 2 is placed in a position in the mold for molding the joint head and is aligned; then, the raw material of the joint head is injected into the mold; finally, after the head 1 is solidified, the mold can be separated by opening the mold.

The raw material of the joint head is injected; finally, after the head 1 is cured, the mold can be separated to obtain a fiber joint 100 comprising a transparent heterogeneous substrate. The above molding method may be pouring molding, injection molding or pressure forming. In summary, the optical fiber connector 100 of the present invention integrally molds the optical fiber 2 into the connector 1. The step of assembling the optical fiber into the connector can be omitted, and no additional adhesive is needed, thereby preventing the adhesive from being solidified and deformed. The problem of the aperture tolerance can effectively avoid the generation of air bubbles, and reduce the offset of the optical fiber 2 when it is loaded into the connector 1 201137422, so that the optical fiber 2 is accurately fixed in the connector 1 and the light is better.
