Properties of polymer optical fibers
2002Like glass fibers, polymer optical fibers are characterized by a wide range of different parameters. In Chapter 1 we discussed the extent to which light propagation affects such essential properties as bandwidth and attenuation. The user will also be interested in other characteristics such as: Durability of the fiber Thermal resistance

Applications of Polymer Optical Fibers
2002The polymer optical fiber has been employed for many years now. In lighting technology it represents a widely used and recognized medium. The share of POF in sensor technology and data communications on the other hand is rather small. Up until now POF was predominately used in niche areas. At present a dramatic change is taking place especially in data

Polymer optical fiber coupler for optical interconnection
SPIE Proceedings, 2002This paper proposes a novel polymer optical fiber coupler, which use thin optical fiber bundle to split and combine the light between thick POFs. The advantages of the coupler over mixing rod coupler include reduced coupling loss, elimination of fiber bending loss, and flexible in design of splitting ration and number of ports.

Polymer Fibers for Nonlinear Optics
1994Abstract : The goal of our research is to assess the possibility of making an ultrafast all-optical switching device. This require the preliminaries of doing materials processing, materials characterization, and making all-device component structures such as single mode fibers.

Polymer and Fiber Integrated Optics
2002In recent years, the interest in making waveguides and other integrated optic devices in polymer materials has grown rapidly. The driving force behind this development is cost reduction. Semiconductor materials and dielectric materials such as lithium niobate are relatively expensive and the processes used to fabricate devices in those materials are ...
