Plastic optical fiber technology

SPIE Proceedings, 2000
We discuss plastic optical fiber technology in the context of its relationship to glass optical fiber technology. POF technology serves as a low cost way to investigate innovative optical fiber material structures. POFs offer some application advantages, especially in low cost broad bandwidth easily interconnected local area networks.

Lab on Fiber Technology Enables Nanophotonics Within Optical Fibers

2013
We report on a reliable fabrication process enabling the integration of dielectric and metallic nanostructures on the tip of optical fibers. The proposed fabrication procedure involves conventional deposition and nanopatterning techniques, typically used for planar devices, but here adapted to directly operate on optical fiber tip.

Photopolymerized Optical Fiber Technology

2007 9th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks, 2007
A method of formation of oligoetheracrylate photo-solidified fibers is proposed. The solidification process is performed by UV-nanosecond 337 nm nitrogen laser. Using different profiles of the light masque the optical fibers with the operated birefringence are formed with averaged diameter about 80- 100 mum.
