Power Coupling Efficiency Enhancement in Multimode Step-Index Fiber Using Refractive and Diffractive Microlenses

A novel study has been undertaken for the coupling efficiency enhancement on planar (refractive and diffractive) microlenses as coupling elements with various geometrical shapes in fibre optics communication. When the dispersion of the planar diffractive microlens is expressed in terms of an Abbe nu...
