Abstract

A screwdriver-like fiber end to couple the light power of laser diode array(LDA) into multimode fiber is presented. The coupling efficiency formula of such coupling system is given, and the numerical evaluation show that the theoretical coupling efficiency could be as high as 83% without an antireflection coating on the fiber end face. This method can be easily fabricated and has large tolerance.
