Precise Light Transmission with Tapered Fibers

Tapered Fibers for Efficient Beam Delivery

Tailored Beam Delivery with Tapered Fibers

Tapered fibers are ideal for applications requiring precise light coupling between different fiber systems. Their special geometry, with a gradually reduced core and cladding profile, minimizes losses and allows highly flexible light management, even in complex system environments.

The tapered design enables efficient adaptation of divergent light sources, increases numerical aperture (NA), and reduces fiber diameter in compact setups. Assemblies can be delivered with standard connectors or custom-designed ferrules, fully tailored to your integration needs.

Benefits

  • Efficient light coupling between different fiber diameters or optical systems
  • Optimization of numerical aperture (NA) for specialized medical and analytical applications
  • Reduced back reflections and scattering losses
  • Compact integration for space-critical OEM setups
  • Customizable length, taper geometry, core/cladding ratio, NA, and more
  • High mechanical stability despite tapered structure

Areas of application

Our tapered fibers are used in a wide range of applications:

  • Laser technology: for NA transformation, power bundling, or beam conditioning
  • Spectroscopy & analytics: for low-loss coupling of divergent light sources
  • Medicine & diagnostics: e.g., in miniaturized laser probes with optimized light output
  • Fiber optic sensor technology: for connecting fibers with different core/cladding profiles
  • Device integration (OEM): for efficient light transmission in compact designs

Technical Options

  • Taper length: flexible, tailored to your specifications
  • Transition profile: linear or exponential (available on request)
  • Compatible with standard and specialty fibers (e.g., Optran® UV/WF/CC)
  • Adaptable to a variety of connector and ferrule systems
