Abstract

An optical probe has a connecting part, a carrier, multiple optical fibers, and a lens hood. The carrier is inserted in the connecting part. The carrier has two opposite ends and a channel. The channel extends to the two opposite ends of the carrier. The multiple optical fibers are inserted in the channel of the carrier. The lens hood is connected to the connecting part. The multiple optic fibers inserted inside the channel are able to cover various orientations of oscillations of polarized light, promote accuracy of inspection result, and save a lot of time from repeated measuring.

Claims (32)

1. An optical probe comprising:

a connecting part;

a carrier inserted in the connecting part and having two opposite ends; and

a channel extending to the two opposite ends of the carrier;

the channel having a diameter between not less than 0.5 millimeters and not more than 1 millimeter;

multiple optical fibers inserted in the channel of the carrier;

a lens hood connected to the connecting part;

each one of the multiple optical fibers extending along the connecting part and having

two opposite ends;

a core having a diameter;

wherein the diameter of the core of each one of the multiple optical fibers is between not less than 25 micrometers and not more than 35 micrometers;

the multiple optical fibers comprise not less than 20 said optical fibers; and

one of the two opposite ends of each one of the multiple optical fibers extends toward the lens hood.

2. The optical probe as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the channel is curved.

3. The optical probe as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the diameter of the core of each one of the multiple optical fibers is 30 micrometers.

4. The optical probe as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the diameter of the core of each one of the multiple optical fibers is 30 micrometers.

5. The optical probe as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the connecting part has two opposite ends, and the lens hood is connected to one of the two opposite ends of the connecting part.

6. The optical probe as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the connecting part has two opposite ends, and the lens hood is connected to one of the two opposite ends of the connecting part.

7. The optical probe as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the connecting part has two opposite ends, and the lens hood is connected to one of the two opposite ends of the connecting part.

8. The optical probe as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the connecting part has two opposite ends, and the lens hood is connected to one of the two opposite ends of the connecting part.

9. The optical probe as claimed in claim 5 , wherein

the connecting part has a screwing portion with an external thread; and

the lens hood has an inner thread screwed with the external thread of the connecting part.

10. The optical probe as claimed in claim 6 , wherein

the connecting part has a screwing portion with an external thread; and

the lens hood has an inner thread screwed with the external thread of the connecting part.

11. The optical probe as claimed in claim 7 , wherein

the connecting part has a screwing portion with an external thread; and

the lens hood has an inner thread screwed with the external thread of the connecting part.

12. The optical probe as claimed in claim 8 , wherein

the connecting part has a screwing portion with an external thread; and

the lens hood has an inner thread screwed with the external thread of the connecting part.
