Abstract
An electromechanical optical scanner is described, which, allows the sequential coupling. of a single to 19 multimode optical fibers. In order to achieve a good. coupling efficiency between the fibers, quarter pitch graded index microlenses (GRIN) are used. Technical data of the system and the evaluation of the insertion, losses are presented, along with loss and repeatability measurements for each channel.
