  • Abstract
    A new mode-field converting fibre has been fabricated from a side-hole fibre with a circular core. An elliptical core of the mode-field converting fibre was realised by heating the side-hole fibre from the side to collapse the holes. Transmission loss of the mode-field converting fibre was <0.1 dB. Coupling efficiency between an LD with an aspect ratio of 3.75 and the mode-field converting fibre was as high as 71.7%
