Abstract

The paper reports the development of a high-performance ruggedized single-mode coupler for an operating temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. Test couplers have been subjected to environmental tests recommended for air-borne fiber-optic components for use in data buses in commercial and military aircraft. The design features of the coupler is reported, as well as its optical performance characteristics and environmental test results.
