Abstract:
Additive manufacturing systems and methods for fabricating an article are provided. The additive manufacturing system may include a substrate and a layering device configured to fabricate a first layer of the article on the substrate. The layering device may include an optical beam source configured to generate an optical beam and a variable beam characteristics (VBC) fiber operably coupled with the optical beam source and configured to modify one or more beam characteristics, such as a wavelength, of the optical beam.

Claim (Index 3):
The additive manufacturing system of  claim 2 , wherein the VBC fiber further comprises a perturbation device operably coupled with the first length of fiber or the second length of fiber, the perturbation device being configured to modify the optical beam traversing through the first length of fiber to generate the modified optical beam.
