The relative spectral transmittance of mid infrared fiber jumpers depends on the thickness of the dielectric layer deposited inside the hollow fibers. This thickness is a parameter that we can control and adjust for specific wavelength ranges. Thicker coatings can provide better transmittance for longer wavelengths. We offer 4 standard coating options, covering the entire mid infrared range. Alternative structures also exist in other wavelength regions, including ultraviolet, visible/near-infrared, and terahertz.
Mid infrared fiber optic jumper
Mid infrared fiber optic jumper(i.e. waveguide) is an ideal solution for many mid infrared applications that require remote laser beam transmission.
The benefits include:
Good transmittance: λ=2-16 μ m
Single mode option with λ ≥ 5 μ m
Modal filtering of non Gaussian beams
High coupling efficiency (>95%)
High energy/power (up to 100W CW)
No end reflection
Unpackaged mode
Sturdy and flexible

Connector Options
Fiber optic cables can be packaged with standard SMA, FC/PC connectors, or exposed. The FC connector has a 2mm key. Due to size limitations, FC connectors are not suitable for plastic 1500 μ m optical fibers. When using the 'bare' fiber option, there is no connector at the end of the fiber.
Coating coverage options
Fiber optic cables can be packaged with or without protective covers. We use standard bifurcated tubes, with fibers located in the inner tube surrounded by aramid fibers and a PVC sheath on the outside. This jacket comes in different colors to choose from. For optical fibers with an inner diameter<750 μ m, the sheath diameter is 3.0 mm, and for optical fibers with an inner diameter ≥ 750 μ m, the sheath diameter is 3.8 mm.
