For the fabrication of bend insensitive Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) arrays, Fibercore offer three, high Germania fibers, SM1500(4.2/125), SM1500(4.2/80) and SM1500(4.2/50). These fibers have cores with more than 5X the Germania content of a telecoms fiber, enabling FBGs to be written with or without Hydrogen loading.
The high Numerical Aperture (NA) of these fibers gives exceptional resistance to bend-induced loss. Optional ‘low-profile’ 80μm or 50mm cladding diameters are available along with increased proof test levels make these fibers ideal for high reliability, coiled and tightly packaged applications, including fiber optic hydrophones and geophones.
Special coating variants are available on request for the ‘Cold Writing’ technique where FBGs are inscribed through the coating, without the need to remove the coating.
Advantages:
- High NA variants for extremely low macro and micro bend losses
- Reduced cladding options for high reliability coils and reduced package volume
- Highly photosensitive core design for high reflectivity
- FBGs
Typical applications:
- Temperature Sensors
- Strain Sensors
- Biomedical sensors
- Hydrophones
- Geophones
- FBGs
