Features

The fibers feature a superior strength (> 100kpsi), which allows for long life at extended stress levels in applications that require tight bends.

The fiber has a strong chemical bond between the silica cladding and the aluminum without any additional layer, this enables direct termination without pistoning. This bond also makes Aluminum coating the ideal choice to preserve deep UV performance in our solarisation resistant product family.

Applications
