Abstract

An optical fiber for converting a Gaussian laser beam into a Bessel laser beam may include a first segment optically coupled to a second segment with a transition region, the first segment having a first outer diameter greater than a second outer diameter of the second segment. The first segment may include a first core portion with a first cladding portion extending around the first core portion. The second segment may include a second core portion with a second cladding portion extending around the second core portion. The optical fiber may have a non-axisymmetric refractive index profile or may be coupled to an end cap with a non-axisymmetric refractive index profile.
