Coupling light from a 980 nm high-power diode laser into a single mode fiber can be done more efficiently by forming a microlens at the end of the fiber, say researchers in Taiwan. Forming a tiny ...

U.H.P. Fischer earneda degree in physics from the Free University of Berlin, Germany in1983. In 1988 he made his PhD in physics of condensed matter. In1988 he joined the Heinrich-Hertz-Institute in ...

SAXONBURG, Pa., April 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coherent Corp. (COHR), a global leader in photonics, today announces the launch of the Axon FL, a fiber coupling module that transforms the Axon 920 ...

It’s fair to say that for most of us, using a fiber optic cable for digital audio or maybe networking will involve the use of an off-the-shelf termination. We snap the cable into the receptacle, and ...

It’s a rare person who can pick up a cheap laser pointer and not wield it like a lightsaber or a phaser, complete with sound effects. There’s just something about the “pew-pew” factor that makes ...

The couplers series 60SMF are high precision fiber couplers optimized for high coupling efficiency, high pointing stability and long-term stability. The couplers’ compact size as well as the ...

Fiber interconnection strategies for photonic integrated circuits (PICs) are usually developed using adhesives. However, this connection technique can lead to optical degradation in the long term and ...
