Abstract
Different optical fibers behavior has been studied in the transfer of a high-power YAG laser beam. With the NEC 1.2 kW YAG laser the authors studied mainly the light loss of the fibers and the capability of handling and connection between lasers and optical fibers. Gradient-index and step-index fibers have been compared. Different diameters and different lengths were tested.
