The Fiber Polishing Mechanical Techniques and Guidelines
No Commentsby www.fiber-mart.com Unlike electrical wires, optical fibers require end-surface treatment for proper light propagation. The two most common ways of surface preparations are cleaving and polishing. While fiber cleavage is very effective on fibers with small diameters such as 125 microns, polishing is essential for almost all glass-based fibers with [ Continue reading…]
