Impact of Geometric Input Fibers’ Core Positioning on the Adiabaticity of Photonic Lanterns

Photonic lantern is a key device in space division multiplexing (SDM) system. The key challenge of a photonic lantern is mode scalability, which requires the taper length to increase nonlinearly as the mode number scales up. The traditional photonic lantern fabrication method requires stacking the i...
