MM Fibers

There are basically two types of multi-mode fibers: graded-index fibers and step-index fibers. In step-index fibers, the refractive index decreases dramatically between the core and the cladding. They are available as quartz/quartz fibers or as so-called HCS fibers (with a quartz core and a plastic cladding). In graded-index fibers, however, the refractive index decreases steadily with increasing radial distance from the fiber axis.

Step Index Fibers

The step index fiber (SI) gets its name from the step-shaped profile of the refractive index between the core glass and the cladding glass

Optical Fiber Tips

An optical fiber end tip is an optical micro-component sculpted on the end of an optical fiber. It is used to reconfigure light entering or exiting optical fiber. Fiber tips bring high reliability/per

Hollow Silica Waveguide

The Hollow Silica Waveguide (HSW) is designed to deliver infrared power in a flexible and rugged package from below 2.9 microns up to 20 microns, a region where silica fibers are far too lossy for pra
