FIBRE-OPTIC CONNECTOR

摘要

FIELD: physics. ^ SUBSTANCE: fibre-optic connector has first and second half couplings for sealing first and second sections of optical fibre on whose butt ends there are first and second pairs of step-up and step-down optical multi-layer transformers. There is an air gap between the outer layers of the first and second pairs of optical multi-layer transformers. Layers of the first and second pairs of optical multi-layer transformers are made from materials with different refraction indices and are measured from outer layers of step-down transformers of the first and second pairs of optical multi-layer transformers adjacent to the air gap towards the butt ends joined to optical fibre sections. Thickness of each layer is equal to a quarter of the medium wave Xo of the signal transmitted over the optical fibre and the number of layers is selected based on conditions given in the formula of invention. ^ EFFECT: lower level of power loss arising due to insufficiently close contact or welded joint at the position of the joint and wider range of apparatus for this purpose. ^ 4 cl, 7 dwg
