Quantitative evaluation of fiber fuse initiation probability in typical single-mode fibers

5.5W@1480nm five-second-long light irradiation through a SMF-28e+ fiber on a highly Co-doped borosilicate glass surface gave 10% probability of fiber fuse initiation. This method is useful to evaluate relative fiber fuse tolerance for various fibers.
