UV Non-Solarizing Optical Fibers are sterilizable.
December 16, 2008 -
Manufactured of all-silica, Optran UV Non-Solarizing fibers operate in 190-1200 nm wavelength. NAs of 0.12, 0.22, 0.28, or 0.30 are available with core diameters of up to 2,000 mm. Made from biocompatible materials, fibers provide radiation resistance to 109 rad. They suit industrial and scientific applications as well as medical applications including medical diagnostics, laser delivery, photodynamic therapy, and medical treatments such as UV psoriasis treatment.
December 4, 2008, Longmeadow, MA. CeramOptec offers the world's first UV Non-Solarizing optical fiber. Optran UVNS (UV Non-Solarizing) Silica/Silica Fiber and PowerLightGuide bundles lead the way in long-term performance with 40,000 continuous, unfiltered hours of level, steady transmission at 95% of the original output.
The Optran UVNS fibers are manufactured of all-silica in our state-of-the-art facilities. They provide excellent throughput over a wide range of wavelengths, from 190-1200 nm, without solarization. They offer high laser damage resistance, a broad temperature range, and a high core-to-cladding ratio. NAs of 0.12, 0.22, 0.28 or 0.30 are available with core diameters of up to 2000 mm. Made from biocompatible materials, the fibers provide radiation resistance to 109 rad. and are sterilizable. Special coatings are available for high temperatures, high vacuum and to resist harsh chemicals.
When used in CeramOptec's PowerLightGuide Fused End Bundles, Optran UVNS fibers provide typical bundle transmission that is 50% higher than any other manufacturer of silica UV fiber products. Our unique PowerLightGuide Fused End Bundles are fused at the ends to eliminate inter-fiber spaces, while maintaining the fibers' NA.
CeramOptec's UVNS fibers are ideal for a wide variety of demanding industrial and scientific applications including as a replacement for UV liquid light guides, spectroscopy, sensors, UV photolithography, laser welding, soldering, marking, laser delivery, nuclear plasma diagnostics, analytical instruments, laser diode pigtailing, pyrometry, semiconductor capital equipment, Thomson scattering, UV illumination and monitoring and UV Raman Spectroscopy. Medical applications include medical diagnostics, laser delivery, photodynamic therapy as well as medical treatments such as UV psoriasis treatment.
