Light Coupling Between a Singlemode- Multimode-Singlemode (SMS) Fiber Structure and a Long Period Fiber Grating

Abstract

We propose a novel optical coupling technique based on evanescent field coupling between a singlemode- multimode-singlemode (SMS) fiber structure and a long period fiber grating (LPFG). By parallel placement of the two fiber sections in close proximity to each other, the excited multi-cladding modes from the SMS fiber section can be selectively coupled to the guided mode in the LPFG, and vice versa. A theoretical analysis based for such a structure is undertaken and the simulated results are verified by experiments demonstrating a maximum coupling efficiency of up to 1.66% (which could be improved to 27.5% in theory) over a broadband resonance (42 nm with a 3 dB bandwidth).
