Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of optics and laser optoelectronics, and more specifically relates to a laser shaping optical fiber, its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of optical fiber communication technology, the use of optical fiber is becoming more and more extensive. In recent years, optical fiber has not only been widely used in the field of conventional communication, but also in the field of industrial laser. Applications such as compensating the gain stepping effect of lasers urgently need special structural fibers with high damage resistance threshold and good spot homogenization effect, and shaping the laser spot is the development direction. For example, in laser welding applications, in order to obtain excellent welding quality and prevent spatter, it is usually necessary to make the heating point near the processing point uniform, which requires uniform laser power density. ...
