Fiber Optic Led.

Abstract

This report deals with the electrical, optical and mechanical characteristics of a fiber optic GaAlAs LED developed for the US Navy, Naval Electronics Laboratory Center, San Diego, California. The developed LED is optimized for coupling to 45 mil diameter conventional multimode fiber bundles. Coupling efficiencies to commercial fiber bundles are calculated and compared to experimental results. Life test results on these new LEDs are also presented.
