Abstract
We proposed a new structure for fiber lens to extend the working distance by applying polymer layer to the fiber lens. The simulation result shows that the working distance can be extended to larger than 10 times than a fiber lens without a coated layer. In simulation, the proposed structure extended the working distance to about 2,110 μm by using polymer layer with a refractive index of 1.3.
