Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of this invention is that it is not suitable for supercontinuum light sources with high coherence. The achromatic lens uses optical glue to paste and fix the surfaces of the two lens parts. Due to the difference in refractive index between the glue layer and the lens, and the The anti-reflection coating usually only has the anti-reflection effect in some wavelength bands, which can easily lead to the formation of interference patterns when the beam of high coherence light sources is collimated

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber, in particular to an optical fiber collimator. Background technique [0002] The fiber collimator is used to convert the divergent light with a faster divergence speed directly output from the fiber end face into parallel light that can maintain the spot size in a longer range, so that it can be further transmitted, coupled, and beam expanded. It is the most common fiber optic passive components. In simple terms, it usually consists of a piece of optical fiber and a lens. The end face of the fiber is located at the focal point of the lens, so that the outgoing beam from the end face of the fiber is transformed into collimated parallel light with a larger beam size and a smaller divergence angle. Commonly used lenses include self-focusing lenses, C-lens, aspheric mirrors, etc. [0003] The supercontinuum light source is a new type of broadband laser light source, which can output a beam of laser light covering...
