Transmission properties of a multimode optical-fiber taper

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A simple and useful formula governing the skew rays propagating through a multimode fiber taper has been derived by using geometrical optics. Using this formula, the transmission properties of the fiber taper are studied. The total light transmitted and the effective numerical aperture for both the meridional rays and the skew rays are compared with those of a uniform fiber.
