What Are Fiber Optic Bundles?

A fiber optic bundle, (also known as a light guide or light pipe), is a multiplicity of single optical fiber strands. When this multiplicity of fibers is randomly gathered, it is usually collected in a jacket (buffer, sheathing, housing) and held together at each end with epoxy to form an output or input source. To […]

The Role of Fiberoptics in Hyperspectral Imaging

What is hyperspectral imaging? Humans see shape, features, color, and texture, and make decisions regarding these characteristics because visible spectrum light energy reflects off objects, is captured by the eye’s lens, imaged on the eye’s retina, and (finally) gets interpreted by the brain. Similar to the vision process above, hyperspectral imaging uses the infrared region

Silica Fiber Assemblies for Laser Applications

During the last three decades, the advancement and adoption of both solid-state laser and fiber laser systems have increased dramatically. They are particularly important in the industrial, medical, scientific, military/defense, semiconductor capital equipment sectors. The days of delivering laser beams through free space optics or cumbersome, bulky, and expensive articulating arms have long passed. The

Introduction to Silica Fiber Bundle Assemblies

Silica (commonly referred to as quartz) fiber bundle assemblies are photon delivery subsystems consisting of many small individual silica fibers, bundled together and combined in either a custom machine-made ferrule or off-the-shelf connector housings designed for use as end fittings. A heavy-duty bundle sheathing is typically incorporated to protect the bundle assembly from damage during
