ABSTRACT:
Fiber Cherenkov type optical wavelength converter device includes a cladding having an exit end for emitting a wavelength-converted wave. The exit end of the cladding is either of a conical shape, or supports a grating composed of concentric patterns which convert the conical wavefront of the wavelength-converted wave into a plane or spherical wavefront. Alternatively, the optical wavelength converter module comprises a fiber Cherenkov type optical converter device and an optical device, such as a lens or grating device, which convert the conical wavefront of the wavelength-converted wave into a plane or spherical wavefront.
