Abstract
Micro processing applications using femtosecond lasers have developed thanks to the quality of the process. A challenge still to be addressed is the capability to deliver the beam through a fibre. One solution is the use of hollow-core inhibited coupling fibres, nevertheless its use requires a beam stabilization to insure a stable operation. This study attempts to qualify two beam stabilisation systems: two piezo motors coupled with four quadrant detectors and Cailabs’ all-optical mode-cleaner system based Multi-Plane Light Conversion (MPLC) technology. To do such output fibre transmission efficiency and beam quality are investigated under controlled fluctuation of beam pointing.
