ICC can manufacturing large core specialty optical fiber, single fiber assemblies, high temperature fiber, high power fiber, bundled assemblies, fiber sensing probe, vacuum feedthroughs solutions, fiberscope and we package these fibers in a variety of assemblies used for optical power delivery and optical sensing applications.

Guiding Photonics produces fiber-optic beam delivery solutions for mid-infrared, high-power and UV sources, including standard products, custom cables, and fiber bundles.

LVF offers the largest range of fluoride fibers in the world, including passive fibers and active fibers for applications ranging from visible to mid-infrared.

• ZrF₄ (fluorozirconate) fibers transmit light from 0.3 µm up to 4.5 µm.
• InF₃ (fluoroindate) fibers transmit light from 0.3 µm up to 5.5 µm.
• GeO₂ (germanate) fibers are qualified for high power handling around 2.7–3.0 µm (Er:YAG and Er:YSSG medical lasers).

LVF fluoride fibers are the most transparent fibers on the market in the mid-infrared 2–5 µm band.

iXblue offers a wide range of specialty optical fibers, either for lasers and amplifiers or sensing applications. Hundreds of fiber designs are available from stock on dedicated e-store. Custom versions are also available. Most of the fibers are also available in radiation-resistant versions, either for nuclear environments or for space missions.

Edmund Optics offers a variety of fiber optics, including jacketed or unjacketed optical grade or communications grade optical fibers. Optical grade fiber is ideal for general industrial lighting or short distance data transmission. Communications grade fiber is designed for optimal visible light transmission for digital or analog links. Jacketed fiber has increased durability while decreasing stray light. Edmund Optics also offers optical fiber components, including patchcords, collimators, faceplates and image conduits, fiber connectors, and the tools needed for cutting or stripping fibers.

NYFORS has gathered more than three decades of knowledge and experience in specialty splicing and fiber preparation applications. In particular, we offer

• high quality automatic fiber cleaving equipment
• devices for fiber end face inspection
• equpiment for fiber recoating and prooftesting
• different kinds of fiber stripping and preparation devices
• laser fusion splicers

Further, we offer consulting services on specialty splicing and fiber preparation.

Optical fibers are at the heart of everything we do. We embed as many functions as possible directly into the fibers to make systems based on our fibers simpler, cheaper, and more reliable. Our Crystal Fibre portfolio spans from nonlinear fibers for octave-spanning supercontinuum generation, over the World’s largest single-mode ytterbium gain fibers for high-power lasers and amplifiers, to advanced hollow-core fibers guiding the light in air.
