Physical-contact conditions for multicore fiber optical connectors

We clarify the physical-contact conditions for multicore fiber connectors with good optical characteristics, and demonstrate physical-contact multicore fiber connectors with a sufficiently high return loss of more than 40 dB for all cores.
