Abstract

Due to the increased use of laser in various analytical instrumentation and microscopy, laser speckle has become an issue, where the speckle reduces the contrast of the images produced. This paper describes an optical fiber-based speckle reducer where the speckle is reduced within the fiber. This allows the de Speckler to be directly attached to any fiber based light source making it easy to use. We will be presenting speckle reduction data along with images produced.
