Fiber Coupling Test Suite
The following problems were devised as a test suite for fiber coupling efficiency algorithms. Each problem includes lens prescriptions, relevant information from our tests, and experimental results, where possible.
Single-Mode to Single-Mode Collimators
Dual-Fiber (Single-Mode) Collimator
Diode to Single-Mode Fiber Collimator
Single-Mode to Multi-Mode Collimator
Multi-Mode to Multi-Mode Collimator
In addition, a description of the fundamental mode of SMF-28, which is relevant to some of the problems, is presented along with the source code and .dll required by ZEMAX for POP.
