| Zusammenfassung: | A method of coupling a first optical beam (18) info the first end of an optical fibre (12) is described that comprises the steps of (i) coupling light into the second end of the optical fibre (12) such that an optical reference beam (10) is output from the first end of the optical fibre (12) and (ii) matching at least one beam parameter of the first optical beam (18) with the corresponding beam parameter of the optical reference beam (10). Step (ii) may be performed using a wavefront sensor (2). Corresponding apparatus is additionally described. |
