چکیده

We successfully obtained a high-bandwidth (1 GHz km) and low-loss (90 dB/km at 0.572 µm of wavelength) graded-index polymer optical fiber by using the interfacial-gel polymerization technique, in which we used an unreactive component to obtain the quadratic refractive-index distribution. This high-bandwidth graded-index polymer optical fiber makes it possible to transmit a high-speed optical signal in a short-range network, which is not possible when we use the step-index type of polymer optical fiber commercially available.

High-bandwidth, graded-index polymer optical fiber for near-infrared use.

We describe graded-index polymer optical fibers with high bandwidth (5.12 GHz for 100-m transmission) and low loss in the near-infrared region (56 and 115 dB/km at wavelengths of 688 and 773 nm, respectively) that we successfully obtained with a new interfacial-gel polymerization technique using an all-deuterated methyl methacrylate monomer and a partially fluorinated acrylate monomer. The nece...

Graded-Index Polymer Optical Fiber (GI-POF)

Plastic Optical Fiber Perfluorinated graded-index polymer optical fibers (GI-POFs) combine high data transmission rates and low attenuation in the commercially desirable 850–1300nm range. GI-POFs offer a direct replacement and a low cost alternative to traditional glass. With ease of use and affordability, GI-POFs make an excellent choice for the installation of high performance fiber networks....

Optimum refractive-index profile of the graded-index polymer optical fiber, toward gigabit data links.

The optimum refractive-index distribution of the high-bandwidth graded-index polymer optical fiber (POP) was clarified for the first time by consideration of both modal and material dispersions. The ultimate bandwidth achieved by the POP is investigated by a quantitative estimation of the material dispersion as well as the modal dispersion. The results indicate that even if the refractive-index...

Polymer-Optical-Fiber Lasers and Amplifiers Doped with Organic Dyes

Polymer optical fibers (POFs) doped with organic dyes can be used to make efficient lasers and amplifiers due to the high gains achievable in short distances. This paper analyzes the peculiarities of light amplification in POFs through some experimental data and a computational model capable of carrying out both power and spectral analyses. We investigate the emission spectral shifts and widths...
