Cleaved oblique fiber end faces for high-performance mechanical splices

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Optical reflections from index discontinuities in the optical path can adversely affect the performance of various lightwave communications systems1 and may cause detrimental changes in the characteristics of active components, such as optical amplifiers2 To minimize the detrimental effects of optical reflections, low-reflectance connectors and splices may be required.
