Abstract The fused fiber coupler is examined for its glass properties. The process of fusion by an H2 flame causes not only an increase of H2O combined with SiO2 but also a loose SiO2 structure and a rough surface near the center of the coupler. Such a change in glass properties is inevitable for commonly produced fiber couplers, although its effect on the long-term stability of the couplers is not known at this time.
