Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibers
Journal of Lightwave Technology, 2009The fabrication, materials, properties and applications of microstructured polymer optical fibers are reviewed. Microstructured polymer optical fibers formed the basis of extensive work on the physics of microstructured fibers, and an outline of the contribution to the wider field of microstructured fibers is also presented.

Future directions for microstructured polymer optical fibers
SPIE Proceedings, 2004Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibers (MPOF) were first made in 2001, and subsequent development has aimed at exploiting the material and design opportunities they present. Most effort has been focused on developing approaches for high bandwidth MPOF, and investigating the properties of multimode microstructured fibers.

Fabrication Conditions for Randomly Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibers
Integrated Photonics Research and Applications/Nanophotonics, 2006Microstructured polymer optical fiber was fabricated in which bubbles were randomly distributed in the cladding to both guide and scatter light. The effect of fabrication conditions on the fiber structure and properties is discussed.

Microstructured polymer optical fibers and its application in sensing
2015 International Conference on Electrical, Electronics, Signals, Communication and Optimization (EESCO), 2015Here a microstructured polymer optical fiber is manufactured using suitable polymer material TOPAS , in order to maintain the refractive index contrast to that of the host material and there by reducing the losses. Bragg gratings were inscribed in the core of the microstructured fiber considering the dispersion loss, scattering and shadowing effect due

Low Loss and Temperature Stable Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibers
Journal of Lightwave Technology, 2012We report on a study of the loss mechanisms in microstructured polymer optical fibers (mPOF), resulting in the fabrication of mPOF with a loss equal to that of commercial polymer optical fibers of 0.16 dB/m at 650 nm, nearing the limit imposed by material absorption.

Hollow-core microstructured polymer optical fiber
Optics Letters, 2006We have fabricated microstructured polymer optical fibers that guide light in a hollow core using the photonic bandgap mechanism. The hollow core allows the use of polymer fibers to be extended to wavelength ranges where material absorption typically prohibits their use, with attenuation lower than the material loss observed in the infrared.

Localized biosensing with Topas microstructured polymer optical fiber
Optics Letters, 2006We present what is believed to be the first microstructured polymer optical fiber (mPOF) fabricated from Topas cyclic olefin copolymer, which has attractive material and biochemical properties. This polymer allows for a novel type of fiber-optic biosensor, where localized sensor layers may be activated on the inner side of the air holes in a ...

A microstructured polymer optical fiber biosensor
2006 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics and 2006 Quantum Electronics and Laser Science Conference, 2006We demonstrate selective detection of fluorophore labeled antibodies from minute samples probed by a sensor layer of the complementary biomolecules immobilized inside the air holes of microstructured Polymer Optical Fibers.

Numerical aperture in microstructured polymer optical fibers
SPIE Proceedings, 2005Microstructured or 'air-clad' fibers, with air holes surrounding a large core, have demonstrated much wider light acceptance angles than conventional fibers. Recently, a new method employing leaky modes has been used to determine the numerical aperture in highly multimode air-clad microstructured fibers.
