Side Polished Optical Fibers
Based on it's all-fiber technology Phoenix Photonics offers side polished optical fibers as a stand alone product. Using a unique, low cost, high technology polishing process developed in-house over 10 years, Phoenix can mass produce polished fibers very accurately to suit the customers requirement.

Phoenix utilises their in house technology to grind and polish away a section of the optical fiber. |
||
A good surface finish is achieved to a depth determined by the customer. |

Side polishing removes a section of the fiber giving easy access to the evanescent field of the optical fiber. |

Most standard silica fiber can be polished to variable depths and lengths. |
Side Polished Optical Fiber - Information and Applications BUY ONLINE
- Side-polishing optical fibers creates a substrate of definable length and depth with parallel surface to guide facilitating access to the evanescent field, with virtually zero loss.
- Guiding properties are modified by structure and refractive index of overlay structure.
- By dynamic modification of structure dimensions, refractive index or absorption, time varying manipulation of the propagation can be achieved.
- Applications in optical fiber components and fiber optic sensing.
