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.

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.

The progress of the GRIN polymer optical fiber (GI POF) for high-speed telecommunication is reviewed. Gigabit data transmission for several hundred meters from visible to 1.3-/spl mu/m wavelength was experimentally enabled by the low-loss perfluorinated (PF) polymer base GI POF.

Summary form only given. We successfully prepared all-fluorinated graded index (GI) polymer optical fiber (POF) in which the attenuation of transmission at 1.3-/spl mu/m wavelength is less than 50 dB/km. This paper is the first report to confirm that the gigabit rate data transmission at 1.3-/spl mu/m wavelength becomes possible for several hundred ...

Single-mode polymer optical fibers
2014 16th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (ICTON), 2014The mechanical properties of polymer optical fibers (POF) make them very interesting candidates for fiber optical sensors. Today POFs are mainly used for short range data communication. These fibers have a very large core of 980 μm. This large core is beneficial for handling and maintenance in fiber networks.

Abstract This article presents a recent approach of polymer microtips integrated at the extremity of optical fibers by photopolymerization. The method is simple and flexible, and the obtained polymer/fiber hybrid system behaves as either a high quality microlens or a probe for near-field microscopy that requires strongly confined fields. Polymer-tipped

Polymer optical fiber amplifiers
2012 14th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (ICTON), 2012We develop Europium complexes and are now integrating them covalently into the polymer chains of PMMA. Monomer free polymer preforms are prepared, from which optical fibers are drawn. Our aim is to use these fibers as optical amplifiers at about 614 nm for in-house communication systems.
