Optical fiber transmission system with a laser beam splitting and combining device
An optical fiber transmission system with a laser beam splitting and combining device includes a laser beam splitting and combining device receiving a laser beam from a laser device and projecting the laser beam onto a target through an objective lens. The laser beam splitting and combining device has a beam splitter, two transmitters, two receivers and a beam combiner. When the beam splitter divides the received laser beam and transmits the divided laser beams to the transmitters, the transmitters transmit the divided laser beams to the receivers through two optical fibers. The receivers send the divided laser beams to the beam combiner for the beam combiner to combine the divided laser beams into an output laser beam projected on the target through the objective lens. Given the optical transmission path of the laser beam splitting and combining device, the laser transmission distance can be extended.
FIBER ARRAY UNIT FORMATION
Methods and systems for forming a fiber assembly are provided herein. A method comprises removing an excess portion from an end of an optical fiber to form a severed end. The optical fiber defines an optical variation portion that includes an optical pathway defining a varying output characteristic of optical signals depending on a position therealong. When the severed end is formed, the position of the severed end along the optical variation portion defines the output characteristic of optical signals therefrom. The method further includes positioning the optical fiber with the severed end onto a film disposed on a surface of a substrate and placing a fixture thereover. The method further includes applying heat to the film through an opening of the fixture to create a bond between the optical fiber and the surface of the substrate.

Multimode fiber optical power splitter
A compact configuration of a multiport fiber array and a multi-surface optical lens constitutes a low modal noise multimode fiber optical power splitter. In a digital optical system, modal noise manifests itself in modal dependent intensity noise and modal dependent timing jitter. A compact two-part end coupling design improves both properties and is more cost effective, making it a suitable solution for future high bit rate optical system applications.
