Contents:
History and Applications of Polymer Fibres and Microstructured Fibres -- Concepts in Waveguide Theory -- Guiding Concepts in Microstructured Fibres -- The Modelling and Design of Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres -- Fabrication of Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres -- Effects of Drawing on the Microstructure -- The Handling and Characterisation of Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres -- Hollow-Core Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres -- Graded-Index Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres -- Bragg and Long Period Gratings in mPOF -- Material Additives for Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres describes the optical properties of microstructured fibres, how they are made and modelled, and outlines some potential applications. These applications include areas where polymer fibres are already used, such as high-data rate transmission for Fibre-to-the Home or within cars, as well as completely new areas such as the photonic bandgap transmission of "difficult" wavelengths. Emphasising a conceptual understanding of the underlying physics, Microstructured Polymer Optical Fibres is clearly written, and includes numerous illustrations. It provides an excellent overview of the latest developments in the field, making them accessible to industry, technical and research audiences.
