When looking for a high quality fiber with superior transmission and a numerical aperture (N.A.) of 0.22 for efficient light coupling, the Superguide™ SFS is the fiber of choice. The Superguide™ fiber is drawn from preforms manufactured by the Plasma Outside Deposition (POD) process. Rods of extremely pure synthetic fused silica are coated with fluorine doped silica layers to obtain preforms with step-like refractive index profiles. Plasma torches prepare the reaction compounds from SiCl4, O2, and a fluorine containing gas. Strong thermal gradients combined with the temperature plasma lead to chemical deposition conditions, which allow very high fluorine concentrations to be incorporated in the fused silica network. Refractive index differences of 0.27 corresponding to numerical apertures in excess of 0.28 have been realized with undoped core rods.

Silica optical fibers, despite their high strength, require coatings to protect and maintain their strength during installation and operation when high temperatures, abrasion, bending, and other stresses can cause fiber fatigue. OFS offers both single-mode and multimode optical fibers with protective coating layers applied directly to the glass during the fiber draw process.

When looking for a high quality fiber with superior transmission and a numerical aperture (N.A.) of 0.22 for efficient light coupling, the Anhydroguide™ AFS is the fiber of choice. The Anhydroguide™ fiber is drawn from
preforms manufactured by the Plasma Outside Deposition (POD) process. Rods of extremely pure synthetic fused silica are coated with fluorine doped silica layers to obtain preforms with step-like refractive index profiles. Plasma
torches prepare the reaction compounds from SiCl4, O2, and a fluorine containing gas. Strong thermal gradients combined with the temperature plasma lead to chemical deposition conditions, which allow very high fluorine
concentrations to be incorporated in the fused silica network. Refractive index differences of 0.27 corresponding to numerical apertures in excess of 0.28 have been realized with undoped core rods.

With numerical aperature (N.A.) of 0.39 and a hard polymer cladding that allows a high core-to-clad ratio, the Anhydroguide™ APCH is the low cost fiber of choice. The pure fused silica (SiO2) used in the core of Anhydroguide™ fiber is made by reacting silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4) with oxygen (O2) using a plasma arc rather than an oxy-hydrogen flame. This ensures that the residual hydroxyl concentration (OH) will be low in the core material resulting in superior infrared transmission as compared with flame prepared silica that is used in the
companion product, Superguide™, which has superior ultraviolet (UV) transmission.

When looking for a silica core and silica clad fiber with a hard polymer coating that allows a high core-to-clad ratio
and a numerical aperture (N.A.) of 0.22 for efficient light coupling, the Anhydroguide™ AFSH is the fiber of choice.
The Anhydroguide™ fiber is drawn from preforms manufactured by the Plasma Outside Deposition (POD) process.
Rods of extremely pure synthetic fused silica are coated with fluorine doped silica layers to obtain preforms with
step-like refractive index profiles. Plasma torches prepare the reaction compounds from SiCI4, O2, and fluorine

Long life, deep UV transmission is made possible with Fiberguide¡¯s solarization resistant optical fibers, wherein the fiber core and clad are hydrogen doped at very high temperatures as the fiber exits the draw furnace and then hermetically sealed with an aluminum buffer/jacket during the fiber draw process. This break-through, patented in-line process allow the use of fiber with a wide variety of UV laser sources, making Solarguide¢â 193 the fiber best suited for deep UV (¡Â 300nm) applications. Irradiation of standard silica fibers with UV photons below 260nm generates defects in the standard silica
structure, so-called ¡°solarization¡±. The solarization is the reason for the significant decrease in standard fiber transmission in UV wavelengths over time making fiber eventually useless in that application. When present in the silica core, hydrogen combines with the defects generated and neutralizes them, preventing the UV photons from being absorbed and thereby lost. Although the effect of hydrogen in lowering the fiber solarization rates in silica is widely known, Solarguide¢â 193 is the only fiber in the industry that has its own
hydrogen supply which has been sealed in with a hermetic shroud (aluminum buffer) around the fiber, thereby making it available for keeping the fiber solarization resistant for significantly longer periods.

Sensors with fibre optics are used for optoelectronic sensing applications where mounting space is limited or where high operating temperatures do not permit the use of conventional sensors. Due to their small design and optical properties they do not only detect the presence of objects but also quality-related details, e.g. thread pitches of screws.
Transmitter and receiver of the fibre optic sensors are integrated into one housing. The fibre optic is connected to the switching amplifier using a special adapter, and so there is almost no loss. Fibre optics can be used as through-beam sensors or diffuse reflection sensors.
Fibre optics consist of flexible glass fibre bundles protected against external influence by a sheath.

Fiberguide has been supporting the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) in taking their concepts and ideas to
market since 1977. Our staff of engineers, technical sales professionals and experienced production team unites
in developing that product specific to your individual application. We design and engineer assemblies using not
only our own pure silica core/silica clad, silica core/plastic clad fibers, but borosilicate glass fiber, ESKA™ plastic
optical fiber, fluoride fiber, chalcogenide fiber, erbium-doped fiber and polarization maintaining fiber as well.
Available with numerical apertures (N.A.’s) from 0.12 (full acceptance angle 14°) to 0.66 (full acceptance angle
82°), with the widest range of custom and standard endfittings/connectors and outer jackets to tailor a product
to your technical and economic requisites.
The definition of a fiber optic assembly is “A length of fiber optic cable that has been terminated with a connector,
pigtail or other component.” This could be a single fiber cable terminated with industry standard connectors
on both ends and jacketed in flexible sheathing, to a multi-fiber design consisting of multiple inputs and/or
outputs, each with different cross-section areas and geometries, each requiring a custom machined endfitting
and a heavy duty outer jacket to protect the assembly from being crushed.
