In this thesis, we have compared between dual-core fiber coupler with photonic crystal fiber coupler. From Surface Integral Equation Method derived from Maxwell¡¦s equations, we can simulate tapered fiber coupler, dual-core fiber coupler and photonic crystal fiber coupler. By analyzing the propagating characteristics and performance of these couplers, we hope to discuss between their advantages and dis-advantages. We have found that at the same parameters, conventional fiber coupler¡¦s coupling length is roughly half compared to photonic crystal coupler. In terms of bandwidth, photonic crystal coupler aided by air-hole tuning can achieve multiples times larger than conventional fiber coupler. So, we believe that in communication networks with a lust of bandwidth, photonic crystal coupler can definitely live up its expectations.
