Abstract :
The coupling behavior between two parallel micro/nano-fibers is investigated by extending the theory of transmission-lines (TL) to optical domain, Simulation result indicates that the energy transfer length of micro/nano-fibers based coupler is much shorter than that of conventional fiber based coupler. The experiment of the coupling behavior of micro/nano-fibers is demonstrated. It verifies the TL model of micro/nano-fiber coupler. This result may offer valuable reference for the investigation of nano-photonic devices.
