Polymer optical fibers

1998 IEEE/LEOS Summer Topical Meeting. Digest. Broadband Optical Networks and Technologies: An Emerging Reality. Optical MEMS. Smart Pixels. Organic Optics and Optoelectronics (Cat. No.98TH8369), 2002
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.

Polymer optical fibers

Optical Fiber Communications, OFC., 1996
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), 2014
The 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.

Polymer Optical Fibers and Nonlinear Optical Device Principles

Angewandte Chemie, 1989
AbstractBasic principles of the present optoelectronic research activities at Hoechst AG are presented in this contribution. Within the diversified broad band spectrum of optoelectronic materials and applications our interest is focused on new types of polymer optical fibers and nonlinear optical device principles using organic Langmuir–Blodgett films ...

Polymer optical circuits for multimode optical fiber systems

Applied Optics, 1980
Polymer optical waveguides for multimode optical fiber systems have been formed by the selective photopolymerization method, and their waveguiding properties have been investigated. It is shown that the polymer optical waveguides match multimode optical fiber systems, with respect to guide dimensions and index differences, and have a transmission loss ...

Polymer-Tipped Optical Fibers

Fiber and Integrated Optics, 2008
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), 2012
We 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.

Studies of Polymer Optical Fibers

Organic Thin Films for Photonic Applications, 1995
The growing demands in local area networks (LANs) for low cost broad band data communications are providing a major opportunity for further technology developments important to polymer optical materials and devices. Polymer optical fibers (POF) can satisfy requirements for high-bandwidth, quick-connect, fiber optics for short distance (100 m) data ...

Fiber optic polymer cure sensor

Journal of Lightwave Technology, 1988
An in situ method is presented for monitoring the curing of polymeric compositions, including epoxy- and polymide-based composites. The sensor measures the difference between the refractive index of the cured and uncured composition, with the index increasing as polymerization proceeds.
