Abstract

PURPOSE:To observe a direct image and a reflected image of an optical fiber simultaneously by single-time focusing by putting a transparent medium which is larger than air in refractive index and has a specific length along an optical path in the optical path. CONSTITUTION:The direct image 10a when the abutting part of the optical fiber 10 is seen directly from above and the reflected image 10b when it is viewed horizontally through a mirror 14 are observed simultaneously through a microscope 11, and the transparent medium 20 which is larger in refractive index than air and has the specific length along the optical path is put in the optical path extending from the optical fiber 10 to an objective lens 12 through the mirror 14. Then, the optical path length from the optical fiber 10 directly to the objective lens 12 is equalized substantially to the optical path length from the optical fiber 10 to the objective 12 through the mirror 14, and the direct image 10 and reflected image 10b are observed simultaneously by putting in focus once.

As shown in Figure 3 of Wrinkle Clear (II 7), there is a path at the end of the AOD from the optical fiber 10 to the objective lens 12 via the mirror 14, where the refractive index is greater than that of air and the light of the AOD is By inserting the transparent medium 20 having a predetermined length along the path, the straight Wm10a
and in focusing the reflected image 1 [1b, the length of the path of the AOD light and the length of the path of the AB light should act in the same way as if they were substantially equal; It is characterized by

In the conventional case, both the AB light path and the AOD light path were in the air, but as mentioned above, the AOD light path was in the air.
When the transparent medium 20 is inserted into the light path, it works in the same way as if the light path were shortened in terms of focusing.

That is, when the refractive index of the transparent medium 20 is N, the length of the light path in the part where the transparent medium 20 is inserted is l.
/ It will be the same as becoming H. Therefore, if we insert a transparent medium 20 that can shorten the light path by the length of 15AC, we can see the direct Q 10 a and the reflected light 110 b by focusing 7 times. It becomes like this.
