Microlenses made in the end of optical fibers by the melting method

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Fiber ends are illuminated with a CO2 laser causing the melting of the material. Due to surface tension the melted material is shaped in a spherical lens. Back focal distances and other parameters are measured.
