The code generating device constructed using asymmetric hollow optical waveguide coupler design provides a unique series of output light intensities which are successively used as an optical code. The design of the waveguide is made using two major components which are asymmetric Y-junction splitter and a linear taper. Waveguiding is done using a hollow waveguide structure. Construction of higher level 1×N hollow waveguide coupler is done utilizing a basic 1×2 asymmetric waveguide coupler design together with a cascaded design scheme. Non-sequential ray tracing of the asymmetric hollow optical waveguide couplers is performed to predict the optical transmission properties of the waveguide. A representation of the code combination that can be generated from the device is obtained using combinatory number theory.展开更多

The code generating device provides a unique series of output power which are successively used as an optical code in a portable optical access-card system. The device utilizing a tap-off ratio (TOFR) technique based on a simple variation of the tap width of an asymmetric Y-branch splitter, allows various ratios of optical power to be generated. The POF coupler has been fabricated using low cost acrylic material and computer numerical control (CNC) machining technique. The simulated and fabricated results show the same linear characteristics between the TOFR and the tap width. The fabricated device enables a variation of the TOFR from 10% up to 50% for a tap width of 500 um to 1 mm.展开更多
