  • Abstract
    Using the silicon etch and polish technique a single-mode fibre is exposed uniformly over up to 13 mm length for evanescent mode coupling. This fibre interaction substrate forms the building block for a wide range of fibre-optic devices proposed here. The performance is illustrated experimentally with the coupler as a basic device.
