Abstract

Laser beam transmission through optical fibers is presented in comparison with other techniques for laser cleaning applications. We describe the parameters of importance for a fiber-user and emphasize on the particularities connected to the injection of very high peak power Q-switched lasers into fibers. A description of the last laboratory and commercial developments of cleaning systems with fiber transmission is given, either with single or multiple fibers.
