Abstract

See full text

Provided is an imaging system using an optical fiber array probe integrated with lenses for emitting light transmitted from a light source to a sample, and guiding light generated from the sample. The imaging system includes an optical fiber array probe integrated with lenses including an optical fiber lens with a lens surface of a predetermined radius of curvature in which one ends of two optical fibers are integrally connected with each other by heating a predetermined region including the one ends of the two optical fibers using a heating means. Therefore, a compact imaging system may be realized while effectively improving optical coupling efficiency through a simple manufacturing process.
