Normalized collected reflected signal versus PTD for the white Lambertian target. Experimental data and Monte Carlo simulations (open circles) are shown for (a) the 600-μm core-diameter single fiber and (b) the tapered and (c) the nontapered bifurcated probes. Additional simulations for 200-μm diameter (open diamonds) and 1000-μm diameter (open triangles) single fibers are shown in (a). Experimental error bars represent ±1 SD. Simulation error bars are not shown because they would not be discernable.
