Product Overview

PFP's pure silica core fibers are optimized for use at visible wavelengths from 400 up to 700 nm. These high-performance fibers were developed for applications such as RGB components requiring couplers, diode pigtails and unique delivery needs. The pure silica core fibers were designed for more demanding applications that require lower attenuation and higher resistance to radiation and color center formation compared to germanium-doped fibers.

Applications
Diode Pigtails Compact UV sources RGB components

Features & Benefits
Tight specifications - Highly deterministic results, highest product yield High proof test - Low risk of mechanical damage and failure High fatigue failure resistance - Longest service life Pure silica core - Resistance to radiation-induced damage and color center formation
