We have constructed and evaluated a video microscope with a 150-× 150-μm field of view
for performing measurements of optical fiber geometry. The microscope consists of a frame …

We have constructed and evaluated a scanning confocal microscope for the precise
measurement of optical fiber cladding diameter. The system measures the fiber endface …

The concept for a new type of confocal microscope with a fiber-optic imaging bundle is
presented, and experimental results are shown to demonstrate the principle. The primary …

We describe a technique that allows the improvement of the resolution of optical
microscopes for nanofiber measurements beyond the diffraction limit. It can be readily …

We have constructed a miniature confocal optical microscope for monochromatic imaging
that uses single-mode fiber illumination and a two-phase off-axis zone plate objective lens …

We have improved and evaluated a scanning confocal microscope for the precise
measurement of optical fiber cladding diameter. In particular, we have studied the systematic …

We report the application of a lensed fiber to a miniaturized fiber raster scanner in order to
reduce the fiber's output beam size, thereby allowing for a compact and flexible endoscope …

The size and weight of conventional optical microscopes often makes them inconvenient for
use on the human body or for in-situ examination during materials processing. We describe …

In this paper we describe a new fiber confocal optical microscopy with miniature scanner
and imaging optics that is being developed for in situ imaging applications. The microscope …
