  • Publication number: 20210231892
    Abstract: An object is to provide an optical fiber side input and output device in which light can be input and output from the side of the tube core cable without adjusting a spacing S even in a case where the thickness of the protective tube differs, and a method of designing the optical fiber side input and output device. An optical fiber side input and output device according to the present invention has a structure in which an angle of a central angle of an apex portion of a first jig having a convex portion is appropriately set, and a loss insertion is kept equal to or less than a prescribed value by using a relationship between a spacing S at the angle and an insertion loss when light is input and output from the side of the tube core cable, even in a case which a thickness of a protective tube changes, and this eliminates the need of adjusting the spacing S.

  • Publication number: 20210191043
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a probe optical fiber and a local-light coupling apparatus for an optical fiber that can input light with high efficiency without performing input efficiency measurement or probe alignment. The present invention is a probe optical fiber of which a tip is close to a bent part of a coated optical fiber disposed in a local-light coupling apparatus for an optical fiber, and which inputs and outputs light to and from the bent part of the coated optical fiber, wherein light emitted from the tip has a light intensity profile in which in the bent part of the coated optical fiber, relative to a light intensity in a center of an optical axis, a decrease in light intensity at a position separated by 20 ?m from the optical axis is less than 17.6 dB.
