PFP Cladding Mode Offset Photosensitive Single-Mode Fiber

 

 

PFP's Cladding Mode Offset Fibers offer enhanced performance when writing two or more gratings adjacent to each other (circa 9 nm offset). Cladding Mode Offset fibers exhibit low splice loss to the industry-standard telecommunications fiber. This photosensitive fiber provides a cost-savings for grating-writing because customers can write highly repeatable, quality gratings in a short time.
Applications
  • OADM
  • C+L Band Gratings
  • Sensors
Features & Benefits
  • High photosensitivity - shorter grating writing time
  • High cladding mode offset ~ 9nm - allows for tighter channel spacing
  • Tight mechanical and optical tolerances - high component manufacturing yields
