Abstract

See full text

An optical transmission device includes a tapered mixing rod that includes an optically transmissive material and has a first face, a second face, and a length. A size of the first face is based on a first number of optical fibers and a size of the second face is based on a second number of optical fibers, where the size of the first face is different from the size of the second face. The length can be selected such that light entering the first face from one of the first number of optical fibers is distributed substantially uniformly across the second face and such that light entering the second face from one of the second number of optical fibers is distributed substantially uniformly across the first face.
