  We study the modularity of the functions of the form $r(\tau)^ar(2\tau)^b$,
where $a$ and $b$ are integers with $(a,b)\neq (0,0)$ and $r(\tau)$ is the
Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction, which may be considered as companions to
the Ramanujan's function $k(\tau)=r(\tau)r(2\tau)^2$. In particular, we show
that under some condition on $a$ and $b$, there are finitely many such
functions generating the field of all modular functions on the congruence
subgroup $\Gamma_1(10)$. Furthermore, we establish certain arithmetic
properties of the function $l(\tau)=r(2\tau)/r(\tau)^2$, which can be used to
evaluate these products. We employ the methods of Lee and Park, and some
properties of $\eta$-quotients and generalized $\eta$-quotients to prove our
results.
