ABSTRACT:
An optical fibre coupling device comprises a mount 11 supporting an optical fibre waveguide having at a fibre end a surface of the fibre core 2 material which is surrounded by a body 3 of cladding material. At the core end a circular symmetric phase plate 7 is centered about the core 2 such that the light from a laser 1 entering or leaving the waveguide experiences a predetermined phase change. The phase change can act to reduce an optical coupling loss which occurs when the device is in use.
