Request InfoFiberLogix International Ltd.WATFORD, England, June 27, 2006 -- FiberLogix, a manufacturer of specialty fibers, has announced the latest offering in its range of optical fibers -- polyimide-coated fiber for applications in the oil and gas, aerospace, sensors, defense, medical and security industries. The new fibers offer a wide operating temperature range, from -65 to 400 °C, with long-term operation at 360 °C in harsh operating environments. Typically, the company said, the polyimide-coated fibers available in the marketplace are manufactured by a single polymer with many thin layers to form overall coating. However, FiberLogix uses two proprietary...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 3/27/2024Fiber Metalization SystemThe Midas Metalization System from Intlvac is designed to produce a single or multilayer symmetrical metal coating on ends, mid spans, or windows of optical fibers for use in a hermetically sealed...Photonics.com 9/29/2023Demultiplexer Optical DevicesThe CWDM4 series from Enablence Technologies are demultiplexer optical devices targeting datacom applications.
