Abstract

Drowned tapered and microlensed single-mode fibers offer significant manufacturing advantages as waveguide couplers. However, controlled manufacturing requires a better understanding of beam propagation in such photonics devices. The authors investigate the mode transforming properties of drowned tapered and microlensed fiber optics and suggest optimal geometries..

Keywords
