In order to expand the depth of field of Optical coherence tomography (OCT) endoscopic probes while maintaining high resolution, a micrometer-resolution all-fiber optic OCT endoscopic probe was designed to achieve high resolution and increased depth of field for the first time in an all-fiber optic structure. The all-fiber endoscopic probe designed in this paper has a diameter of 140 µm and consists of three parts, which are step multimode fiber, coreless fiber and gradient refractive index fiber in that order. The transmission of a Gaussian beam with a wavelength of 0.83 µm in this probe, a conventional OCT endoscopic probe, and a ladder-type variable-core all-fiber endoscopic probe, respectively, was simulated based on the beam propagation method, and the depth of field and lateral resolution of the output light fields of the three types of endoscopic probes were analyzed comparatively. The simulation results show that the conventional OCT endoscopic probe has a resolution of about 5 µm and a depth of field of 50 µm, the large-core multimode all-fiber endoscopic probe has a resolution of about 17 µm as well as a depth of field of 500 µm, and the setup probe has a lateral resolution of about 2.4 µm and a depth of field of about 200 µm. The designed endoscopic probe can combine high resolution of ~2 µm and extended depth of field of ~200 µm in a small size of several hundred micrometers in outer diameter, which improves the resolution by ~3 times compared with the large-core multimode all-fiber endoscopic probe (17 µm resolution), and extends the depth of field by ~3 times compared with the conventional OCT endoscopic probe (50 µm). The high-performance all-fiber-optic endoscopic structure designed in this paper can provide a theoretical basis for the development of observation techniques for lesions in the inner %K 光学相干层析成像, %K 内窥探头设计, %K 微米分辨率
