  • Abstract
    Two holographic couplers capable of coupling to each other two bundles of optical fibres are discussed. The analysis follows Kogelnik´s method of deriving coupled differential equations inside the holographic medium. The arising partial differential equations are solved exactly for the transmission case whereas for the reflection case an approximation of somewhat more restricted validity is presented.
