OPTICAL PATHS FOR LASER ENERGY SOURCES IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS

Additive manufacturing systems and their methods of use are disclosed. According to some embodiments, a delivery portion of small optical fiber is optically coupled to a large optical fiber by an adiabatic fiber taper. In some instances, an additional reducing taper may be included between the small...
