ABSTRACT:
A laser-optical fiber interface including the combination of a solid state laser producing a point source of polarized light and a polarization-holding, single-mode optical fiber. The optical fiber comprising a core and cladding of non-circular cross section and having different refractive indices forming a single mode guiding region which permits the de-coupling of waves polarized along the axis of the fiber. The outer surface of the fiber includes an indexing surface with a predetermined geometric relationship to the guiding region. The optical fiber being mounted upon a substrate for receiving and supporting the indexing surface of the fiber with the solid state laser so that the end of the fiber is placed and aligned adjacent the solid state laser.
