Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An optical coupling lens includes a body, first converging portions, second converging portions, third converging portions, and fourth converging portions. The body includes a first optical surface, a second optical surface perpendicular to the first optical surface, and a reflecting surface oblique relative to the first optical surface and the second optical surface. The first and second converging portions are formed on the first optical surface and face the reflecting surface. The third and fourth converging portions are formed on the second optical surface and face the reflecting surface. The third converging portions correspond to the first converging portions, and the fourth converging portions correspond to the second converging portions. The reflecting surface is configured for reflecting light beams from the first converging portions toward the corresponding third converging portions, and for reflecting light beams from the fourth converging portions toward the corresponding second converging portions.
