A Study of Wavefront Reconstruction Applied to Lensed Fiber

Applying laser near-field wavefront reconstruction, we have discussed the coupling mechanism of the laser and optical lensed fiber. The coupling of the laser and optical lensed fiber is in the near-field range. In order to discuss the coupling mechanism of the laser and optical lensed fiber, we had to measure laser beam in near-field(including intensity and phase).The laser near-field intensity could be measured directly with an objective and a CCD camera. Because the laser spot size was too small, it was difficult to measure the laser near-field phase directly. Therefore, we used the phase retrieval algorithms, intercepting two groups of laser near-field intensity distribution plane to calculate laser near-field phase distribution. Combining laser near-field intensity distribution and phase distribution, we could rebuild laser beam in near-field. Lensed fiber is fabricated by means of grinding and fusing. We measured the coupling efficiency of the lensed fiber and laser diode(the wavelength of laser beam is 980nm), and simulated the surface of the lensed fiber with software. Applying beam propagation method, we could calculate the laser near-field distribution which propagated through lensed fiber, and cooperate the coupling efficiency of the lensed fiber and laser diode to explain the coupling mechanism.
In summary, we discovered that the lensed fiber in the course of the coupling mechanism of the laser and optical lensed fiber changed the laser near-field phase from a bending curved surface into a flat curved surface just like the phase of plane wave, and it also improved the coupling efficiency.
