Abstract

See full text

A single and dual lensed optical waveguide capable of approximating a desired IQP light profile to produce uniform welding with two overlapping Gaussian light profiles that are mirror folded back on themselves. This allows for a resolution of the laser light that comes out of a fiber bundle in a weld width of under {fraction (1/100,000)}th of an inch. The results are narrow, uniform plastics TTIr welds that show no signs of bubbling.
