Optocoupler is a coupling region that enables optical signals in the transmission in a coupling region of a particular structure, and is redistributed.
Optocoupler Classification: Optical discrete component combination, fiber melt pull tapered, planar waveguide.
Fuse pull tapered full-optical coupling
The melt pull tapered coupler is a coating layer of two (or two or more) The fiber is closer to a certain manner, melting at high temperature heating, while stretching at both ends, ultimately a special waveguide structure of a double cone is formed in the heating zone, which can achieve a coupling of the transmission optical power.
Features: This coupler has a very low additional loss, good direction, good environment, simple and flexible control method, low production cost, suitable for mass production.
Wavelength division multiplexing / demultiplexer
Wavelength division multiplexing coupler is a coupler that is allocated in the coupling zone; The separation / demultiplexer is a light passive device that synthesizes the optical wave wavelength.

The main model
polarization correlation type and polarization independent type of the optical isolator can be divided into single-stage and double-level types. The optical isolator can be divided into online type and miniaturized according to the application.
Polarization-related optical isolator and polarization independent optical isolator
The former is highly dependent on the polarization state of the input light, suitable for laser and Other polarizers are used in combination; the latter is hardly affected by the input light flavor, suitable for use in fiber optic transmission systems.
