Abstract
We review recent progress in coupling devices for monomode fiber systems, with an eye towards practical performance limits in the near future. Emphasis is placed on key subjects such as laser-to-fiber coupling and packaging, connectors, and splicing. In addition, we also discuss planar lenses which are being developed for various applications.Keywords
