Title Design and optimization of fiber couplers using Ray-Tracing
Author Χατζηκώστας, Αντώνης
Thesis advisor Παπάζογλου, Δημήτριος
Abstract Fiber couplers serve as crucial components in modern optical systems, facilitating the efficient coupling of light into and out of an optical fiber. This thesis delves into the world of fiber collimators, exploring their fundamental principles, different designs, aberrations, and the critical role they play in optical fiber applications. The thesis explains the basics principles guiding fiber collimators, shedding light on their design, starting with a thorough investigation of the fundamentals. The adventure continues into the world of geometrical optics, where optical phenomena are clarified and help to understand how light behaves when passing through an optical system. This thesis examination of the aberrations present in fiber collimation systems is a key component. This research analyzes the aberrations that might impair optical performance and discusses methods to lessen and fix them, improving the accuracy and dependability of optical coupling. The study also explores the world of optical fibers, clarifying their properties, divisions, and useful mechanics. The use of sophisticated software tools for thorough analysis and optimization of fiber coupling systems is also explored in this thesis. Modern software ”Optica” helps with the simulation, modeling, and testing of collimators, allowing engineers and researchers to create designs with high levels of efficiency and accuracy. Additionally, this thesis introduces two developed fiber coupling systems that were made with authentic Thorlabs optical fibers. These practical applications highlight the seamless fusion of theory and practice and show the direct relevance of the knowledge acquired in this thesis to real-world settings.
