Modeling Evanescent Wave Fiber Coupling

[James D Patterson]

Anyone had any success in using Optiwave to model evanescent waver fiber coupling (Bottle Coupler). Need to vary cladding dimension and coupling length and plot power output from the two output fibers.

Kind Regards, JP

Hi James,
This is an interesting application and I’m sorry for the slow response! I’m trying to get a better idea of what you are interested in simulating. I’ve attached a picture from a dissertation that I believe is what you are referring to. Let me know if I am on the right track.
