Abstract
Techniques and devices for using fibers that are angle-polished to reduce the adverse effects of optical reflection. Each fiber is mounted so that the longitudinal direction of the fiber core forms an angle with respect to an optical axis of a device along which an optical beam is coupled to or from the angle-polished end facet of the fiber.
