Abstract :
We have produced angle at the end face of optical fibers. Repetitive experiment result illustrates its reliable and stable production of the 8 degree angle. Comparing the beam profile of regular and angled optical fibers, we confirm the focusing of beam attributed to curvature of the angled optical fiber.
