Description

This is a PIR-Fiber Cable for flexible delivery of CO2 Laser Power. FlexiRay product line from art photonics includes unique High Power PIR-Fiber Cable for flexible delivery of CO2 laser radiation. Compared to hollow waveguides PIR-fibers provide more stable power transmittance under cable bending and can be bent for a smaller radius. Spectral SMART treatment of PIR-fiber ends suppresses Fresnel reflection to increase output power for 10-15%

What are PIR fibers? Silver Halide fibers are polycrystalline infrared (PIR) optical fibers that have high transmission in mid-IR wavelength range. Similar to standard optical fibers, PIR fibers propagate light by total internal reflection. They are comprised of a core and a cladding made from halide materials such that the refractive index of the core is higher than that of the cladding.
