Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a device for producing at least one microstructure () on an axial end () of an optical fiber (). The method comprises the following steps: —providing (S) the optical fiber (); —wetting (S) the axial end () of the optical fiber () with photoresist (); —orienting (S) the optical fiber () and a writing beam of a 3D printer with respect to one another; —forming (S) the at least one microstructure () by exposing the photoresist () to light with the aid of the 3D printer.
