DESCRIPTION

Arrays are manufactured using highly precision etched silicon wafer V-Groove technology providing exceptional control of fiber-to-fiber pitch and linearity, in conjunction with a silicon lid enabling sub-micron accuracy. The V-Groove chips provide a multi-fiber housing that is exceedingly lightweight, low profile and highly robust, designed for next generation high perf... (read more)

Tapered optical fibers can be made either by fusing a short tapered section onto a longer fixed diameter fiber, or, by very carefully controlling the drawing process to produce a single continuous fiber with an integral tapered section. Fiberguide used the latter process since it results in superior fiber strength, alignment precision and optical power transmission. Tapered optical fibers cause... (read more)
