Power losses in optical-fiber graded-index-rod components

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The coupling of two fibers terminating in graded-index-rod lenses is analyzed. In particular, power losses due to angular misalignment and to the combined effects of lateral misalignment and spacing are discussed, assuming a Gaussian radiation pattern of the fibers. Criteria for the design of graded-index-rod components are also given.
