Fused Cone Wavelength Division Multiplexing Coupler

Corning's fused WDM couplers are used to combine and separate optical signals transmitted on different wavelengths. We offer 2-wavelength fiber WDMs for UV/visible, visible, visible/NIR, or IR wavelengths, 3-wavelength fiber WDMs, 4-wavelength fiber WDMs, and. A fused coupler basically consists of two, parallel optical fibers that have been twisted, stretched and fused together so that their cores are very close to each other. This forms a Coupling Region as shown in Figure 1 below. The length of this Coupling Region, L, determines the coupling ratio.
