Ball lenses are often used as beam collimators for optical fibers and to improve signal coupling between emitters, detectors, and fibers. They have a high coupling efficiency and are easy to align. A single ball lens is used to couple a laser beam to an optical fiber, while two ball lenses are used to couple two optical fibers.
