Abstract
A fiber optic alignment device on a crystalline substrate support is disclosed. An exemplary embodiment embodied in a resonator fiber optic gyro is fabricated by a process of forming a crystalline substrate support structure operable to support the first end portion of the optical fiber and the second end portion of the optical fiber; forming a first end V-groove portion and a second end V-groove portion in the support structure; physically coupling the first end portion of the optical fiber to the first end V-groove portion; and physically coupling the second end portion of the optical fiber to the second end V-groove portion.
