LENSED FIBER OPTIC PROBE AND OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY USING THE SAME

摘要

PURPOSE: A lens-coupled optical probe and an optical tomography device using the same increase a working distance by expanding a focus distance. CONSTITUTION: A connector part (20) is combined with the end of optical fiber (10). The connector part surrounds the outer periphery of the optical fiber. The connector part is inserted into an accommodation groove. A lens part (30) has a ball lens. The ball lens is formed on a path where a light source passes from the connector part.
