Background
The optical fiber has the characteristics of low loss and flexibility, and is widely applied to the fields of optical communication, sensing, lasers and the like since the time comes. The coupling efficiency of the light beam propagating in free space into the optical fiber is an important link of the utilization rate of light energy. The diameter of the optical fiber core is usually between ten micrometers and hundreds of micrometers, the size is small, and theoretical calculation shows that the position and attitude error of the optical fiber seriously affects the coupling efficiency and the sensitivity is very high. How to quickly and accurately position the optical fiber is an important issue.
The spatial position XYZ and the attitude θ x θ y of the fiber are five important parameters that affect the coupling efficiency. In a laboratory, an optical fiber port is usually fixed on a five-dimensional or six-dimensional adjusting frame, the relative position and posture of the optical fiber and the coupling lens are continuously adjusted, and an adjusting item and an adjusting direction are judged according to the power change trend of the optical fiber output in the adjusting process until a target value is reached. Generally, the process is tedious and time-consuming, and especially in the infrared band commonly used in optical fiber communication, initial positioning by visual inspection is difficult. In actual products related to optical fiber coupling, an optical fiber and a coupling lens generally need mechanical fixed connection, an adjusting mechanism does not exist, the coupling efficiency is guaranteed to be high in cost by the aid of accuracy of mechanical dimensions, and the coupling efficiency is not close to the theoretical limit due to the fact that the sensitivity of the coupling efficiency to the position and the posture of the optical fiber is high, and the assembling and adjusting process cannot be avoided due to the fact that the mechanical positioning accuracy is not enough to guarantee that the coupling efficiency is close to the theoretical limit. In the production process of related industrial products, the position and the posture of the optical fiber cannot be continuously adjusted, so that the adjustment direction of the next step cannot be judged according to the variation trend of the coupling efficiency, the coupling efficiency does not reach the standard, the out-of-balance optical fiber freedom degree and size are difficult to judge, and finally the adjustment process is more complicated and time-consuming.
