Abstract
An analysis of light transmission through a tapered hyperbolic secant waveguide is presented. Focusing and collimation conditions by this waveguide are obtained. The design of a beam-size controller device is proposed and compared with a similar device designed with nontapered hyperbolic secant waveguides.
