Jean-Michel Pelaprat and Dr. Baishi Wang, Vytran LLC

Optical fiber probes are still in the early stages of manufacturing, but filament fusion technology enables many probe designs, from ball lenses to fiber lenses, among others. Cleaving fiber bundles with high quality and good throughput facilitates their manufacturing and provides a cost-effective solution for device makers. Optical fiber components have been widely used in optical communication, fiber laser systems, fiber optic gyroscopes and fiber sensing applications. Recently, fiber optic probes have been adopted for in vivo optical imaging of internal tissues via optical coherent...Read full article
