Mode-group mixing device via complex phase masks printed on fiber tip

Abstract

We introduce a novel, low loss and compact mode scrambler, printed directly on fiber-connector. The device is optimized to flatten inter-mode-group mixing level over all mode-groups at minimum loss for strong mixing in FMF links. [ view full abstract ]
