Laser-oriented growth of long polymer tip for scanning optical applications
2013
We report on the laser-oriented growth of a polymer probe with a length of hundreds microns at the end of a single mode fiber. It has a high L/r ratio of 250 and a very low loss of 0.31 dB in optical transmission. It can be applied as an efficient scanning optical source and photo-detector.
