Facebook X LinkedIn Email
ATLANTA, June 13, 2017 — Sensor and filter developer Technica Optical Components LLC has established a new fiber Bragg grating (FBG) manufacturing facility and advanced technologies center in Singapore.

The new operation, Technicasa Singapore Pvt. Ltd., is equipped with femtosecond laser stations, nanoscale positioning, micromachining equipment and advanced proprietary fiber processing technologies.

"Demand for FBG sensors is growing in energy, security, transportation, structural health monitoring, civil engineering, medical, industrial and other fields,” said Andrei Csipkes, president and CEO of Technica. “Immune to electromagnetic interference, small, light, multiplexible and highly reliable, our new generation of FBG sensors, FBG sensing arrays and FBG sensing cables support monitoring and controlling industrial and commercial processes, equipment and infrastructure. We are excited to significantly expand the envelope of commercially available fiber optic sensors.”

Technica is a developer, manufacturer and provider of FBG sensors and filters, FBG array sensors in acrylate, polyimide and gold coated fibers, as well as FBG cable sensors in steel and glass fiber reinforced polymers.

Glossary
fiber bragg grating
A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is a type of optical filter that is inscribed or "written" into the core of an optical fiber. It consists of a periodic modulation of the refractive index along the length of the fiber. This modulation forms a grating structure that reflects a specific wavelength of light while transmitting others. Key features of FBGs include: Periodic modulation: The refractive index of the optical fiber's core is periodically modulated, creating a series of alternating high...
