Preparation of Fiber Reinforced Silica Aerogel Block [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2021 Silica aerogels are lightweight, highly porous nanomaterial with extremely large internal surface area but fragile and brittleness. To enhance the applicability of aerogels, fiber reinforced silica aerogel insulation blocks are prepared by frothing ...

Tapered fibers embedded in silica aerogel [PDF]
Optics Letters, 2009 We have embedded thin tapered fibers (with diameters down to 1 microm) in silica aerogel with low loss. The aerogel is rigid but behaves refractively like air, protecting the taper without disturbing light propagation along it. This enables a new class of fiber devices exploiting volume evanescent interactions with the aerogel itself or with dopants or
