Shaping Beam Profiles Using Plastic Optical Fiber Tapers with Application to Ice Sensors
Using either bulk or fiber optics the profile of laser beams can be altered from Gaussian to top-hat or hollow beams allowing enhanced performance in applications like laser cooling, optical trapping, and fiber sensing. Here, we report a method based on multimode Plastic Optical Fibers (POF) long-ta...
