Plastic Fiber Optic Light Guides

Fiber optics is a glass or plastic fiber that carries light along its path. Through total internal reflection, light is kept in the core of the fiber optics. This causes the fiber to act as a waveguide. Fiber Optics is used as light guides to conduct the stream of light source to a point of use. These light guides brighten places that are too tiny or too risky to fix a light bulb. There are two classes of light guides: the plastic light guide and the glass light guide.

Used in the manufacture of industrial products, plastic is the overall ordinary term for a broad variety of synthetic or semi synthetic organic amorphous solid materials. Plastics are typically polymers of molecular mass, and may contain other substances to improve performance and/or to reduce costs. There are different types of plastics for different uses: cellulose-based plastics, bakelite, polystyrene and PVC polystyrene, nylon, and rubber plastics. These are used for molding, plastic models, plumbing, gutters, house siding, enclosures for computers and other electronic gear, and others.

In fiber optis technology, plastic is used as plastic light guides. Fiber optic light guides consist of non-coherent bundles of optical fibers. The fibers at each end of the bundle are tightl compressed, cut perpendicular to the axis of the fibers, and polished to permit light to pass into and out of the bundle. They have a flexible outer sheath and a light-conducting core. Multi-leg devices are split along the length of the light guide so that the ends of the fibers extend separately to illuminate different points from a single light source. Although flexible glass fiber optics is more flexible than plastic fiber optics, the latter is more suitable for the transmission of light in the visible and near-infrared range. Moreover, plastic light guides have little luminuos loss over distance are better suited for UV light transmission.

Selecting what light guides to use requires a careful review of physical and performance requirements. Physical specifications refer to length, diameter, and termination method. Keep in mind that some light guides are terminated with a threaded or unthreaded ferrule, a tube-like mechanical fixture that confines the stripped end of a fiber bundle while others are unterminated devices. However, performance specifications apply to wavelength, acceptance angle, bend angle, and numerical aperture.

Acceptance angle is the maximum angle measured from the axis within which light is admitted or given out by the light guide and transferred along its path, and the bend radius is the tiniest bend that fibers can withstand before fracture. Numerical aperture refers to the calculated, optical value that indicated a device's ability to collect light over a range of input angles.

When you have decided which light guide you need, go to a trusted provider of fiber optics and related devices to ensure that your product, be it fiber optic transceivers or other SFP transceiver modules, pass industry standard qualifications.
