A system for measuring a laser-induced damage threshold in an optical fiber may include a lens to direct a first laser beam through a core of the optical fiber. The system may also include an optical arrangement to direct a second laser beam through an exterior surface of the optical fiber and into the core of the optical fiber at a preselected location of the optical fiber to provide a predetermined power density at the preselected location, wherein the optical arrangement causes the second laser beam to be directed into the optical fiber substantially completely around a perimeter of the optical fiber to provide the predetermined power density. |
