Fused couplers are in use for several years now. They are generally meant for two actions- splitting optical signals between two fibers and to combine optical signals from two fibers into one fiber. Fused couplers are constructed by fusing and tapering two fibers together. This method provides a simple, rugged, and compact method of splitting … Continue readinghttp://www.dkphotonics.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/fused-optics-600x106.png
