A high-precision curve fitting method was investigated so evaluate the focusing performance of an ultra-small gradient-index (GRIN) fiber probe. Firstly, an overview of the GRIN fiber probe model is given. Secondly,according to the characteristics of Gaussian beam focusing through the GRIN fiber probe ,the polynomial fitting method is proposed to evalu- ate the waist position and spot size of the focused beam. Finally,the evaluation method is analyzed for validation. The re- sults show that, with the curve fitting method, the obtained working distance and waist diameter are 0.93 mm and 28.2 μm, respeetively. Under the same conditions, the experimentally measured working distance and waist diameter are 1 mm and 28 13μn,accordingly. The fitting results are in good agreement with the experiment data. Therefore,the proposed polynomial curve fitting method is applicable to evaluate the focusing performance of GRIN fiber probe.
