Abstract

An optical coupling apparatus is disclosed, including: a monochromatic light source configured to emit monochromatic light; a monochromatic light photodetector configured to receive the monochromatic light; and a monochromatic light transmission medium, wherein at least a portion of the monochromatic light transmission medium is disposed between the monochromatic light source and the monochromatic light photodetector, and the monochromatic light is transmitted to the monochromatic light photodetector via the monochromatic light transmission medium, wherein a wavelength of the monochromatic light is shorter than a wavelength of infrared light. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an optical coupling apparatus with a higher upper limit of operating frequency, which may better meet user requirements.
