ENCLOSURE FOR MODIFIED OPTICAL FIBER

A mode-stripper for an optical fiber includes a water-cooled enclosure. A portion of an optical fiber to be mode-stripped is modified in a way which allows radiation to leak from cladding of the fiber. The optical fiber extends through the enclosure from a proximal end thereof to a distal end thereo...

Zusammenfassung:	A mode-stripper for an optical fiber includes a water-cooled enclosure. A portion of an optical fiber to be mode-stripped is modified in a way which allows radiation to leak from cladding of the fiber. The optical fiber extends through the enclosure from a proximal end thereof to a distal end thereof, with the modified portion of the fiber within the enclosure. The fiber is fixedly held in the enclosure at the proximal end thereof and held at the distal end of the enclosure by an elastomeric diaphragm.
