Read MoreTo couple light both into and out of an optical fiber, it is essential to have a collimated light beam. With the help of an optical collimator, the divergence of the light beam can be significantly reduced.
Read MoreThe capacity of optical fibers to transport light over long distances with hardly any losses is one of the characteristics that makes them such popular components. However, the coupling efficiency is often
Read MoreFibers and fiber optics collimators are also specified by their numerical aperture, which defines the angle of the cone of light accepted by the optic or the fiber. In this equation, n is the index of refraction and theta is the maximum half angle of the light accepted by the component. Typically, this system is in air so n equals 1.
