Application of Optical Fiber Made of Various Materials with Composite Properties of Materials in Laser Medical Treatment

Abstract:

Though introducing the optical fiber in a laser medical treatment made ​​of different materials, contrast expounded integrated characteristic of the different materials in manufacturing an optical fiber material, summed four aspects need to be considered in the choice of the optical fiber manufacturing material. First, the laser parameters, such as maximum laser power, the wavelength, the transmission distance, the laser beam spot size and numerical aperture of the laser light source. Second, according to the optical fiber light transmittance curve, to identify the optimum transmittance of the application wavelength. Third, determining transmission optical slender core diameter, typically a core diameter is greater than the laser spot size of 2/3; decision sets of plastic material finally.
