Abstract: | The numerical aperture of core-clad multimode optical fibers with the core made from high-purity As2S3 glass is measured by a far-field technique using a cw CO laser (5.3-6.3 μm). The lengths at which a steady-state modal distribution
is reached are determined for optical fibers with metallic coatings, tetrafluoroethylene/difluoroethylene copolymer coatings,
or immersion. Various factors affecting the numerical aperture of fibers with an unsteady-state modal distribution are examined. |
