Breakthrough in fiber-optic cables
February 12, 2007
Researchers at Virigina Tech have developed a technique that simplifies the manufacturing of fiber-optic cores. Using a technique called “core-suction,” the researchers produced nonlinear fibers required for fiber lasers, Raman amplifiers, and continuum generation. The technique uses considerably less grass fiber and eliminates processing stets, which may improve purity.
