Abstract

Volumetric fiber-optic thermal converter (VFOTC) formed on the end of the quartz fiber as a result of two-stage conversion of quartz and carbon by medical diode laser radiation with a wavelength of 980 nm is investigated both experimentally and theoretically. The geometrical dimensions of the converter are defined and the internal structure of the converter is studied by optical microscopy. The dependence of VFOTC temperature on exposure time of diode laser radiation with a wavelength of 980 nm and power of 1.0±0.1 W is obtained experimentally. The structural, optical and thermal model of VFOTC is proposed. Good correlation between the experimental and modeling results of laser heating of the converter is demonstrated.
