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.

Foundations of optical fiber technology

1995
An optical fiber is a strand of dielectric material which can trap optical radiation at one end and guide it to the other. Normally, the fiber consists of at least two optically dissimilar materials, as shown in a generalized manner in Fig. 2.1. These materials are arranged so that one material, called the cladding, completely surrounds the other.

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.
