Abstract

Beam expanders are required for in-line fibre devices such as connectors and power splitters. Such expansion has generally relied on a lens to achieve the necessary beam size. In this letter we demonstrate a rugged alternative approach which is based on the expansion of the field when a monomode fibre is tapered.
