The flexibile nature of optical fiber enables it to offer remote-access capabilities, which could
be used in many biomedical applications. This review focuses on different micro-and nano …

We demonstrate a fiber-based probe for maximum collection of the coherent anti-Stokes
Raman scattering (CARS) signal in biological tissues. We discuss the design challenges …

Common-path optical coherence tomography (CPOCT) is known to reduce group velocity
dispersion and polarization mismatch between the reference and the sample arm as both …

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a high-resolution imaging modality with the
potential to provide in situ assessment to distinguish normal from cancerous tissue …

We review the research on specialty fiber couplers with emphasis placed on the
characteristics that make them attractive for biomedical imaging, optical communications …

We report the development of an all-fiber multimodal system, based on a double-cladding
fiber (DCF) and related devices, suitable for simultaneous measurements of optical …

We present both a theoretical and an experimental study of a novel compact lensed fiber
system utilizing a nanostructured GRIN lens. The lens can be integrated with an optical fiber …

Shaped optical fiber tips have recently attracted a lot of interest for photonic jet light focusing
due to their easy manipulation to scan a sample. However, lensed optical fibers are not new …

We report a facile and direct fabrication method for integrating functional optical
microstructures on the top surface of an optical fiber. A programmable maskless fabrication …

We present three-dimensional (3-D) in vivo photoacoustic (PA) images of the blood
vasculature of a chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) obtained by using a fiber-based …
