Micro crack analysis of optical fiber by specialized TD-OCT

•We have developed the specialized TD-OCT systems with the rotation mechanism for reference paths scanning.•It is now possible to conduct the absolute measurement within the error of ±3 dB and the return loss range of −10 to −100 dB.•This system can detect the existence of the hidden fiber micro cra...
