ABSTRACT:
To facilitate determination of the refractive-index profile of an optical fiber by the near-field technique, the fiber to be examined is inserted into a body of transparent liquid held by surface tension in a surrounding capillary tube also made of light-transmissive material. The tube, which is axially coextensive with the inserted fiber, has a refractive index less than the minimum index of the fiber core and cladding whereas the liquid has a refractive index exceeding the maximum index of the fiber core.
