ABSTRACT:
A photoelectric beam device comprises a light source, a monomode optical fibre, a transmitting optical unit, a reflector and a photodetector, where the transmitting optical unit comprises a collimation optical unit, e.g. in the form of a graded index lens or rod lens and a beam expansion optical unit e.g. in the form of a telescopic optical unit. A fibre-optic directional coupler, arranged between the light source and the monomode fibre, conducts to the photodetector the optical signal reflected back from the reflector to the transmitting optical unit and refocused into the fibre.
