ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic coupler is provided having first and second optical fibers fused together along a predetermined length having fused tapered ends for the input and output of optical energy and a constant diameter section therebetween to facilitate coupling of optical energy between the first and second optical fibers. The constant diameter section provides a higher efficient coupling action and a stronger, more rugged coupler.
