Abstract
A system for producing a tapered fiber optic component, the system including a support platform, coupled with a first end of an optical fiber, a weight suspended from a second end of the optical fiber, such that the weight applies longitudinal pulling pressure on the optical fiber, and a moveable heater, positioned adjacent to a predetermined area of the optical fiber, the predetermined area is positioned between the first end and the second end of the optical fiber, the moveable heater applying thermal energy to the predetermined area of the optical fiber, when the optical fiber is lengthened by the pulling pressure, the movable heater follows the predetermined area, such that the movable heater remains adjacent to the predetermined area of the optical fiber.
