Name: Optran® HUV – High-NA UV Fiber (350-2200 nm)
Brand: Ceramoptec
Availability: InStock

Description

Optran® HUV optical fibers are multimode fibers with a fused silica core and a fluorine-doped acrylate cladding, designed for light transmission in the 350–2200 nm spectral range. The fibers are characterized by a high OH content, which influences their transmission behavior, particularly in the ultraviolet and visible wavelength range.The combination of silica core and fluorinated acrylate cladding results in defined numerical aperture values and stable light guiding properties.

Optran® HUV fibers are available with a wide range of core diameters and numerical aperture configurations, enabling integration into various optical system designs.These fibers are used in applications where transmission in the UV and visible range is required, while maintaining compatibility with broader wavelength ranges extending into the near-infrared.

The defined material composition and geometry support reproducible optical performance across different configurations.Optran® HUV fibers are typically integrated into optical assemblies, illumination systems, and measurement setups where controlled light delivery is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I choose a high-NA fiber like Optran® HUV?

High-NA fibers such as Optran® HUV are typically used when efficient light collection or delivery is required, especially in systems with divergent light sources or where alignment conditions are less constrained.

What is the difference between Optran® HUV and Optran® HWF?

The main difference between Optran® HUV and Optran® HWF is the OH content of the fiber. Optran® HUV is a high-OH fiber, while Optran® HWF is a low-OH fiber, which affects their spectral transmission characteristics.

Is Optran® HUV suitable for UV applications?

Optran® HUV is designed for light transmission starting from 350 nm and is commonly used in applications that include UV wavelengths within this spectral range.

What is the advantage of high numerical aperture optical fibers?

High numerical aperture (NA) fibers can accept light over a larger range of incident angles. This improves light collection efficiency when coupling light from divergent sources such as LEDs, lamps or scattered light in detection systems.
