Gold and Aluminium Coated Fibres
Jul 15 2010
Delivering reliable operation in extreme conditions, Fiberguide Industries provides its metal jacket series of gold and aluminium coated optical fibres. These fibres have proven effective in a number of applications including
avionics/ aerospace; raman spectroscopy and Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) for down-hole oil and gas operations. Originally developed for ultra high reliability telecommunications, the metal coating preserves the
fibre’s mechanical strength and provides resistance against static fatigue caused by long term tensile loading. Gold and aluminium coated fibres also can withstand a wide range of temperatures, with aluminium coated
fibres rated from -269°C to +400°C and gold rated from -269°C to 700°C. Gold or aluminium coating can be applied on continuous lengths to a wide variety of multimode, step index, graded index and single mode fibres.
Core to clad ratios of 1.1, 1.2 and 1.4 are available with numerical apertures of 0.12 and 0.26. Non-standard sizes can also be manufactured by request.
