Research on the influence of alignment error on coupling efficiency and beam quality for Gaussian beam to multimode fiber
摘要： The effect of alignment error on the coupling efficiency and beam quality of a Gaussian beam coupled into a large-core multimode fiber is studied in this paper. The equations for evaluating the effect of alignment error on the coupling efficiency are derived separately, and verified with the method of simulation. The calculation and simulation results obtained are highly consistent. In the same way, the effects of alignment error on the beam power distribution are discussed. The results show that the lateral error will change the path of partial light to a large extent, and have a greater influence on the power distribution of the Gaussian beam than the longitudinal error and angular error do.

Coupling a silicon-on-insulator waveguide to a metala??dielectrica??metal plasmonic waveguide through a vertical and lateral taper-funnel structure
摘要： Designing efficient and compact couplers is crucial in hybrid integration of plasmonic components with conventional silicon-on-insulator components. Taper-funnel structures are conventionally used to couple light from a silicon strip waveguide to a metal–dielectric–metal plasmonic waveguide. In this paper, we investigate the effect of different parameters of the metallic funnel and the vertically and laterally tapered silicon waveguide on the performance of the designed coupler. Numerical simulations indicate that the tuned coupler has an average coupling efficiency of 87% in the C-band. The designed 1.18-μm-long coupler has a shorter length compared to the previous designs, while its theoretical coupling efficiency is higher than 85% in the entire O, E, S, C, L, and U bands of optical communication.

Improving the out-coupling efficiency of polymer light-emitting diodes with soft nanoimprinted random corrugated structures
摘要： A simple method is demonstrated in this study by applying random corrugated structures into the polymer emitting layer via soft nanoimprint technology to enhance the light out-coupling efficiency of polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs). The device with the random corrugated structures presents high efficiency and stable emission close to the Lambertian pattern. Compared with the flat device, about 52% efficiency enhancement is achieved in the PLEDs with the random corrugated structures, which can be understood by extraction of waveguide mode and surface plasmon polariton mode losses simultaneously. With these advantages, the simple random corrugated structures have the potential to stimulate the development of low-cost and large-area flexible PLEDs with high efficiency in the applications of solid-state light sources and full-color displays.

[IEEE 2019 Workshop on Recent Advances in Photonics (WRAP) - Guwahati, India (2019.12.13-2019.12.14)] 2019 Workshop on Recent Advances in Photonics (WRAP) - Effect of M <sup>2</sup> parameter of the fiber and the laser on the efficiency of coupling between them
摘要： We present a study on the dependence of coupling efficiency between an optical fiber and a laser on their M2 factors viz. Mf2 and M2, respectively. It is observed that the coupling efficiency is maximum for M2/ Mf2 < 1. This gives a fair idea for selection of optical fibers in coupling laser beams to optical fibers.

Simulation of structural design with high coupling efficiency in external cavity semiconductor laser
摘要： For external cavity semiconductor lasers (ECSLs), high coupling efficiency is critical to reducing the linewidth. In this paper, the coupling efficiency between the laser diode and the waveguide grating has been improved, with proposals for its improvement presented, including adding spot-size conversion (SSC) and using a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguide. The results indicate an increase of coupling efficiency from 41.5% to 93.1%, which exhibits an improvement of approximately 51.6% over conventional schemes. The relationship between coupling efficiency and SOI waveguide structures is mainly concerned in this article. These findings provide a new way for the future research of the narrow linewidth of ECSL.

Improvement in light out-coupling efficiency of OLED by using high fill factor parabola curve microlens arrays
摘要： Aspheric microlens arrays (MLAs) are introduced on glass substrate to improve the light out-coupling efficiency (LOCE) of organic light-emitting diode (OLED). Geometric ray tracing was employed to simulate the improved effects and optimize the structure parameters of the MLAs pattern. The simulation results show that when the parameters of MLAs as follows, the curved profile is parabola, the base shape is hexagon, the fill factor is 1, the aspect ratio is 0.6, and the material refractive index should be match to that of the substrate of the OLED, which can improve LOCE maximum. Poly-dimethyl-siloxane (PDMS) parabola curve MLAs films ware fabricated by maskless lithography technique and template replication. The experimental results show that the MLAs can improve the LOCE and the trends of the experimental results agree with the simulation results. A maximum increase of 49% in the coupling efficiency was achieved.

Influence of positioning errors of optical shaping components for single emitter laser diode on beam shaping effects; 单发射激光器二极管光学整形元件定位误差对光束整形效果的影响;
摘要： Beam shaping is required for semiconductor lasers to achieve high optical fiber coupling efficiency in many applications. But the positioning errors on optics may reduce beam shaping effects, and then lead to low optical fiber coupling efficiency. In this work, the positioning errors models for the single emitter laser diode beam shaping system are established. Moreover, the relationships between the errors and the beam shaping effect of each shapers are analysed. Subsequently, the relationship between the errors and the optical fiber coupling efficiency is analysed. The result shows that position errors in the Z axis direction on the fast axis collimator have the greatest influence on the shaping effect, followed by the position errors in the Z axis direction on the converging lens, which should be strictly suppressed in actual operation. Besides, the position errors have a significant influence on the optical fiber coupling efficiency and need to be avoided.

High-performance upconversion luminescent waveguide using a rare-earth doped microtube with beveled ends
摘要： Upconversion luminescence-based waveguides can achieve optical signal transmission and visible light emission with near-infrared light excitation and their quality is highly dependent on the coupling efficiency between the light and waveguide. Here, a new luminescent waveguide formed by a rare-earth doped microtube with beveled ends was designed to increase the optical coupling efficiency for vertical waveguide-excitation. The beveled end enabled the near-infrared light to effectively couple into the waveguide and produce a visible transmission pattern and directional emission, which was not possible using conventional luminescent waveguides without beveled ends. It was found that the beveled end can not only improve the input and the output signal efficiency, but also control the coupling efficiency and transmission pattern. In particular, a coupling efficiency of B68% could be obtained with the optimized beveled waveguide with a rotation angle of 301. The high optical coupling efficiency and multi-channel luminescent waveguide enabled by the microtube with beveled ends allowed for a deeper understanding of vertical waveguide excitation, and it extends the potential applications of luminescent waveguides for bioimaging and optical communication.

Fabrication tolerance analysis of grating couplers between optical fibers and silicon waveguide
摘要： The grating structure and its performance for coupling between fiber and silicon-based waveguide are studied and analyzed. The coupling mechanism is illustrated through the grating Bragg diffraction condition, and the effect of physical parameters and alignment parameters of the grating coupler on the coupling efficiency is analyzed by FDTD (Finite-difference time-domain). The optimum design values of the period, duty cycle, etching depth and alignment parameters of the grating coupler are obtained, and at the same time, the deviation analysis on the optimal size is carried out. We present high-efficiency grating couplers fabricated both in EBL (Electron Beam Lithography) and Deep Silicon Etching through process optimization on device dimension, which can be useful for grating coupler fabrication.
