Spatiotemporal beam self-cleaning for high-resolution nonlinear fluorescence imaging with multimode fiber
Abstract Beam self-cleaning (BSC) in graded-index (GRIN) multimode fibers (MMFs) has been recently reported by different research groups. Driven by the interplay between Kerr effect and beam self-imaging, BSC counteracts random mode coupling, and forces laser beams to recover a quasi-single mode pro...
