Problems solved by technology

However, there are two problems in the coating scheme: 1. Coating is a secondary processing of the drawn optical fiber. The thickness of the coating depends on the speed of the optical fiber passing through the coating cup and the viscosity of the coating material. If the coating device and the drawing device are placed On a production line, there will be certai

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an optical fiber, its preparation method and its application field, in particular to a flexible optical fiber, its preparation method, and a drivable laser scalpel based on the optical fiber. Background technique [0002] With the development of medical technology, higher requirements are put forward for the precision and flexibility of the operation during the operation. For example, the previous spinal surgery with an incision size of 10cm-20cm, based on the development of the concept of minimally invasive surgery, the surgical incision can be reduced to 3cm-5cm. By reducing the wound, the patient's injury can be reduced and the patient's healing speed can be accelerated, but at the same time, higher requirements are placed on the accuracy and flexibility of surgical instruments. [0003] The development of laser technology has made laser medical treatment more and more popular in recent years. Compared with traditi...
