Abstract

A kind of connector utilizing self focusing optical fibers is designed to couple Lambertian point source to multimode optical fibers. According to the emission pattern of the source and transmission characteristic of self focusing optical fiber, our calculation result shows that such a coupling scheme can improve coupling efficiency and tolerance.
