Patent number: 7754114Abstract: In a method for manufacturing an optical fiber probe in which an optical fiber is formed as an optical fiber probe by etching a tip section and sharpening a core region of the optical fiber, the optical fiber is a polarization maintaining optical fiber including the core region, a stress-applying region, and a clad region. The optical fiber probe is formed by mechanical-grinding of the edge of the optical fiber into a sharpened shape so that the core region is located at the tip of a sharpened portion, and by dipping the formed edge of the optical fiber in an etchant for further sharpening the core region. Accordingly, a new optical fiber probe both with high transmission efficiency and with a large polarization degree is obtained.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2008Date of Patent: July 13, 2010Assignee: National Institute for Materials ScienceInventors: Tadashi Mitsui, Hidetoshi Oikawa
