Abstract:
Frequency-based mode mixing may be used to homogenize different modes in an optical fiber used for surgical illumination. A laser modulator may introduce frequency modulation to laser light to generate a homogeneous illumination field due to increased mode mixing in the optical fiber.

Claim (Index 14):
The device of  claim 13  wherein the transmission characteristic of the optical fiber is selected from at least one of:\n a length of the optical fiber; \n a dispersion value for the optical fiber; \n a core diameter of a core of the optical fiber; and \n an index of refraction of the core of the optical fiber.
