In order to ensure the highest technical performance and to provide the optimum solution for a diversity of applications,
LEMO has developed four types of fibre optic contacts; designated F1, F2, F3, and F4. These contacts are designed to
operate with single fibre, multi fibre, and mixed fibre optical/electrical cable constructions and cater to single and multimode
fibres from 9/125 to 1500 µm diameter.
The choice of fibre optic contacts depends upon the following criteria:
- Cable construction (single fibre, multi fibre, mixed optical/electrical)
- Fibre type (single-mode or multi-mode). |

Our broad line of LIEKKI fibers includes erbium (Er), ytterbium (Yb)and advanced active fibers.
LIEKKI ytterbium fiber
The LIEKKI ytterbium fiber product line Yb1200 offers high efficiency and short application lengths while maintaining excellent beam quality, high reliability and ease of handling. Photodarkening has been minimized to a negligible level.
The Yb1200 product line covers the broad application field of ytterbium fibers ranging from low-power preamplifiers to high-average-power pulsed amplifiers and high continuous-wave (CW) power fiber lasers.
LIEKKI erbium fiber
LIEKKI offers a broad selection of erbium doped fibers for applications ranging from standard telecom & cable TV C- and L- band amplifiers and amplify spontaneous emission (ASE) sources to very highly doped short-pulse amplifiers for 1.5µm.

| 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. |

| When looking for a low cost fiber with a high numerical aperture (N.A.) for more efficient light coupling, the Anhydroguide™ PCS is the fiber of choice. With an N.A. of 0.37 and a plastic cladding that allows a high core-to-clad ratio, satisfies those requirements and more. The pure fused silica (SiO2) used in the core of the 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. |

Polymer optical fiber (POF) has been on the market for many years. Both the fiber core and the cladding are made of polymer. Key advantages of polymer optical fibers are high flexibility (high alternate bending resistance with smaller bending radii) as well as more economical connecting and transmission technology than in the case of glass. Moreover, this type of fiber also has all the major benefits of a fiber optical cable connection: EMC security, clear galvanic separation, no crosstalk, low weight, etc.
POF can meanwhile be used to connect over distances up to 70 metres, which is normally sufficient for both industrial environments and smaller office as well as home networks. It is even possible to cover distances up to 150 metres by selecting suitable active components.

Polymer cladded fiber (PCF) has been on the market for many years, standing out by being very robust and easy to assemble. Compared with thick-core glass fibers, they are not only more robust but also considerably cheaper.
PCF consists of a silica core with polymer cladding. What is especially important here is good adhesion of the cladding material to the glass core, which does not go without saying because of the different expansion coefficients especially at high temperatures. This is where the many products on the market differ most. It is also why there are a vast number of different abbreviations such as PCS, HCS, HPCF, etc.
Low attenuation makes it possible to cover distances up to 500 metres with systems designed for POF (about 660nm), and up to 4 kilometres with 850 nm systems.

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. |

Fast and trouble-free communications are taken for granted nowadays. To make this possible, hundreds of kilometres of cable thread through office buildings and factories, linking equipment, floors and buildings. Even whole countries are interlinked by cable.
Fiber optic cables provide the ideal solution for future-proof installations because they enable not only high rates of data transmission with major spare capacity, but also the highest possible degree of operating security.

| While single mode silica/silica fibers are available from a number of suppliers with standard polymer coatings, Fiberguide is unique in offering these fibers with high performance buffers/coatings of aluminum, gold or polyimide. A single mode fiber has a sufficiently small core diameter that it can only transmit a single transverse optical mode. Typical core diameters are in the range of several microns up to around 10 microns depending on the wavelength being transmitted. Conventional single mode fibers covered in this data sheet have circularly symmetric cores. As such, they can actually transmit two orthogonally polarized modes. Normally, this aspect is ignored because such orthogonal modes travel at nearly the same velocity and they can be treated as one. However, in very high data rate systems and other critical applications it is important to preserve the polarization state that is launched into the fiber. Such cases require the use of polarization preserving single mode fibers that are discussed in the accompanying data sheet. |

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. |
