摘要： An optical fiber Mach Zehnder Interferometer includes a first and second elongate optical fiber having a core and a cladding, first and second couplers wherein the cladding of the first optical fiber is coupled to the cladding of the second optical fiber. The first optical fiber includes a first elongate interfering arm where the first optical fiber extends between the first and second couplers. The first interfering arm includes a miniature bend formed therein. The second optical fiber includes a second elongate interfering arm extending between the first and second couplers and may also include a miniature bend formed therein. The miniature bends are contemplated to be either packed or unpackaged. The fibers may exhibit different coefficients of thermal expansion to maintain the path length differences of the interfering arms.

摘要： The present invention is a fused/taper fiber optic coupler and related methodologies for a fuse/taper fiber optic coupler with an FBG that does not excite cladding modes and maintains the coupling regions of the fibers in the proper relationship to one another without a complex and expensive process. Aspects of the fused/taper fiber optic coupler include the use of optical fibers with a three layer structure. The optical fibers include a photosensitive core layer, a photosensitive inner cladding layer, and a photo-insensitive outer cladding layer. Coupling regions are formed in each optical fiber by removing the outer cladding layer and the coupling regions in each optical fiber are then helically intertwined. The intertwined coupling regions are then heated and drawn forming a tapered area in which an FBG may be written.

摘要： A varied ratio coupler, and a method of forming the same, constructed and arranged, in a unitary structure, to cause optical power in an input optical fiber to couple asymmetrically to at least two output optical fibers in a manner establishing different insertion losses between the input fiber and at least two output optical fibers. The coupler includes a central fiber surrounded by a close-packed ring of fibers. In certain preferred embodiments, the coupler has a bend that lies in a preselected plane and has a radius of curvature that is selected to provide the above difference in the insertion losses.

摘要： In one aspect, the invention concerns fused fiber optic couplers of the type formed from fibers of transparent substance each having a circular cross-section of preselected diameter. The fibers include a central fiber and at least one ring of closely packed surrounding fibers with at least some of the fibers being optical fibers that have a core and a surrounding cladding. The coupler is formed by the processes of providing the fibers, assembling them in a close-packed relationship, and heating and drawing the assembly of fibers in the close-packed region.We have discovered that the steps involved in forming such a coupler, introduce slight size variations that can seriously affect the performance of the coupler, and that these slight variations can be accommodated by slight, controlled, under-sizing of one or more of the surrounding fibers or over-sizing of the central fiber.

摘要： An asymmetric optical fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer has first and second optical fibers connected at a first coupling region and a second coupling region. The first and second optical fibers form two interfering arms between the first and second coupling regions. To form the asymmetry, the propagation constant in a portion of the first optical fiber in one of the coupling regions differs from the propagation constant in a portion of the second optical fiber in that coupling region. The asymmetric structure provides 30 dB isolation over a greater wavelength span.

摘要： A passive temperature compensating package for a fiber Bragg grating device in which the fiber Bragg grating is written to the fiber prior to the temperature compensation being set. As the temperature of the package increases the fiber is de-stressed and at the desired proper resonant frequency, the fiber containing the fiber Bragg grating is secured to the package. As the package cools and expands, the fiber is pre-stressed and maintains the desired resonant frequency.

摘要： An optical fiber add/drop filter includes a first and second elongate photosensitive optical fiber, each optical fiber having opposed first and second ends and including a core and a cladding. The cladding of the first optical fiber is optically coupled to the cladding of the second optical fiber at a coupler. A first fiber Bragg grating is etched into a second end of the first fiber for converting light propagating in a first direction through either of the core of cladding of the first fiber into light propagating in an opposite direction through the other of said core and cladding of said second fiber. A second fiber Bragg grating is etched into a first end of the second fiber for converting light propagating in a first direction either of the core or cladding of the second fiber into light propagating in an opposite direction through the other of the core and cladding of the second fiber. The first and second fiber Bragg gratings are located to opposite sides of the coupler. The add/drop filter of the present invention may be cascaded to form an optical add/drop multiplexer.
