    摘要： Embodiments of endo-illuminators and related methods are disclosed. One embodiment of an illuminator can comprise a cannula defining a passage, an optical element disposed at an end of the cannula, and an optical fiber running through the passage with the distal end of the optical fiber in contact with the optical element. The optical fiber includes at least a heat preconditioned distal portion that terminates in the distal end that is in contact with the optical element. One embodiment of a method can comprise inserting an optical fiber through a proximal portion of a cannula and optical element assembly until the distal end of the optical fiber contacts the optical element, heating a distal portion of the optical fiber to between a softening temperature and a melting temperature for a period of time to cause the distal portion to axially shrink and moving the optical element so that the optical element is in contact with the distal end of the optical fiber when the distal portion of the optical fiber has axially shrunk. Moving the optical element so that the optical element is in contact with the distal end of the optical fiber when the distal portion of the optical fiber has axially shrunk can comprise applying a force to the cannula and optical element assembly to maintain the optical element in continuous contact with the distal end of the optical fiber while the optical fiber axially shrinks.

    摘要： In embodiments of the invention, a plastic optical fiber is bonded to a high temperature distal part to form a thermally robust illumination probe. The distal part is short in length, is made of a high temperature material(s), has a proper shape for guiding light in a desired application, and may be coated with a reflective coating to ensure that the light rays trapped within the part do not escape when the side of the part is in contact with high refractive index or absorptive materials. The distal part may be made of high temperature material(s) such as high temperature plastic rods, glass optical fibers, and so on. The distal end may be tapered or sculpted to a desired configuration. The plastic optical fiber and the high temperature distal part may be joined, using an optical adhesive, inside a steel cannula, a plastic hub, an optical connector, etc.

    摘要： A laser probe for electrically steering a light beam includes a tubular-shaped housing, an optical waveguide, and a beam steering cell. The optical waveguide is disposed within an interior region of the housing and is configured to emit a light beam travelling in a first direction. The beam steering cell is disposed within the housing and comprises an electro-optical (EO) material. The beam steering cell is configured to receive one or more voltages and electrically steer the light beam with the OE material to a second direction. The EO element has a shape of varying thickness such that a first portion of the light beam passes through a portion of EO element having a greater thickness than a second portion of the EO element passed through by a second portion of the light beam. The laser probe may be a directional laser probe or a multi-spot laser probe.
