Title: Parabolic tapers for overmoded waveguides

Patent ·
OSTI ID:6672989

A waveguide taper with a parabolic profile, in which the distance along the taper axis varies as the square of the tapered dimension, provides less mode conversion than equal length linear tapers and is easier to fabricate than other non-linear tapers.
