Abstract
2-photon lithography enables custom fabrication of optical waveguides at a sub-micron resolution and millimeter scale. Custom optical fiber architecture is a powerful component for development of fiber coupler systems and advancement of fiber based imaging technology. Here we present an exploration of methods for 2-photon fabrication of optical fibers and fiber coupler systems.
