Abstract

The invention relates to an optical device comprising: a section of dual core fiber (100) comprising at least one power exchange zone (102) between both cores (10, 20), said zone (102) being located sufficiently far from each end of the fiber section (100) to avoid power from being exchanged between both cores (10, 20) at the level of said interface; at least one planetary component (120) comprising at least two guide elements (122, 124) enabling adaptation with respect to the cores (10, 20) and at another place on said planetary component adaptation with respect to at least one auxiliary optical element; in addition to comprising one such auxiliary optical element (130, 140).
