High average coupling of aspherical microlens for high-power laser diodes to fibers

We demonstrate a new scheme of aspherical microlens (ASM) employing a single-grinding technique for efficient coupling between high-power laser diodes and single mode fibers. The ASM exhibited high coupling efficiency of 88% and high average coupling efficiency of 84 %.
