Optical Connecting of Fibers by Laser Beams Propagating from the Fibers Edges

Figure 8

Experimentally synthesized polymeric structures formed under the radiation propagating from the edges of multimode fibers: at their coaxial positioning (a), at transversal shifting 2𝜌=150𝜇m (b), fibers are under inclination 2𝛼=3^∘ (c), and 2𝛼=6^∘ (d).
