ABSTRACT:
An exemplary WDM coupling device may include optical fibers. The coupling device may also include region(s) having varying coefficients of thermal expansion. During a temperature variation, one or more of the region(s) may alter in size to substantially cancel temperature-dependent changes associated with the WDM coupling device.
