Abstract

A splicing procedure of erbium doped fiber with standard SMF-28e is discussed in the paper. The optical loss of 0.12 dB at 1300 nm wavelength was obtained. The active power monitoring method was adopted in the splicing process. Furthermore, the shape deformation of the octagonal, double clad fiber is reported. In addition, end-cap fabrication and angled fiber cleaving is discussed in the paper. Splicing and end-cap fabrication was performed with the use of filament fusion splicer.
