Abstract

Distortion-free fiber optic faceplates (FOFPs) are required to improve the optical performance of electronic imaging systems, particularly CCD-based imaging devices. In the course of determining the intrinsic sources of image distortion in FOFPs we have developed novel fiber architectures capable of producing ultra-low distortion arrays1. In this paper we review this analysis, present experimental results on two new FOFP architectures that have been demonstrated to produce ultra-low distortion FOFPs, and discuss prospects for further work.
