A Novel Scheme of LPOF by Jointing an Aspheric Plastic Lens and a Plastic Fiber Using Laser Transmission Welding

Wang, Sheng-ho 18 July 2006 (has links)
A novel lensed plastic optical fiber (LPOF) scheme to achieve the high coupling efficiency with a long working distance between the light source and LPOF is proposed. The advantages of the proposed LPOF are demonstrated by proofs of the experiment. In this study, an aspheric convex-concave plastic lens (CCPLs) is bonded with a flattened end of the plastic fiber by using the laser transmission welding (LTW) to form an aspheric-endface fiber. The working distance between the light source and LPOF can be increased with high coupling efficiency by the design of the CCPLs. According to the proposed design in this study, the working distance and the coupling efficiency can reach to 300£gm and 80%, separately. Furthermore, the analysis shows that the LTW can achieve a high welding strength and a small heat affected zone that meets the commercial utilization. But the LTW technology has some restrictions, the disadvantages of the LTW technology are improved in this study to spread the application of the laser welding.
