Journal ArticleDOI
LED spectral slicing for single-mode local loop applications
TL;DR: In this article, an approach towards a singlemode local loop is presented in which each customer is given a dedicated wavelength channel by taking different wavelength slices from identical LEDs, accomplished by means of WDM components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tapers in single-mode optical fibre by controlled core diffusion
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of obtaining tapered single mode fiber cores by controlled thermal diffusion of the dopant is described, which shows an increased tolerance to longitudinal and transverse offsets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature desensitisation of delay in optical fibres for sensor applications
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate a significant reduction in delay sensitivity against temperature in optical fibres, using a novel tight jacketed fiber structure, which has the cabability of producing fibre in which the optical delay is insensitive to temperature.

Optical coupling device
TL;DR: In this paper, a coupling device couples low power levels of optical radiation out of an optical fiber for maintenance and fault-finding purposes for optical communications systems, which finds particular application in optical communication systems.
Patent
Temperature desensitization of delay in optical fibres
TL;DR: An optical fiber has a coating of liquid crystal polymer which causes temperature-dependent stress-induced changes in the optical fiber such as to counteract temperature-induced change in the transmission delay of the fibre.
