In the near infrared, Germanium Oxide, Fluoride Glass and Chalcogenide infrared (CIR) fibre cables have optical transmission to match the output from LEDs and solid state infrared lasers including ER:YAG, Quantum Cascade, Disk, VCSEL and VECSEL types.
GeO2 Glass Fibre
For the efficient delivery of radiation from ER:YAG lasers at 2940nm.
Chalcogenide Infrared (CIR)
Chalcogenide infrared (CIR) glasses are the best As2S3-based material for fibre optics in the range of 1.5-6µm. CIR fibre is drawn in a core/clad structure with double polymer coating and is characterised by low optical loss and high flexibility.
