Patent Searching and Data


Title:
モード変換器
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2008538613
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
An in-fiber mode converter comprises fiber portions (10) constituting an input microlens, a fiber portion (20) constituting a phase shifting region adapted to convert a propagation mode of an optical signal into another propagation mode, and fiber portions (30) constituting an output microlens. The fiber portions are spliced, the converter is compact and losses are minimized relative to mode conversion in free space.
