Abstract:
A first optical fiber (12) having a first end and a second end is connected to a multimode second optical fiber (14) at the second end. The first optical fiber (12) outputs a substantially single mode optical beam at its second end. The multimode second optical fiber (14) converts light in the optical beam of single mode from the first optical fiber to light of multiple modes, and provides an output beam that has less diffractive spreading than that of a Gaussian beam.
