Alignment tolerances for plane-wave to single-mode fiber coupling and their mitigation by use of pigtailed collimators

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We discuss the efficiency with which coherent plane waves can be coupled to single-mode fibers in the presence of deterministic or stochastic misalignments of the fiber relative to the focal point of a lens. We point out how the alignment demands can be relaxed by means of graded-index-lens fiber-pigtailed collimators.
