Where to Buy Fibers

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.

Our large port­folio of optical fibers spans from just a few meters of highly engineered fiber to several kilometers of SMF-28 compatible material:

• single mode (SM) fibers
• multi mode (MM) fibers
• polarization maintaining (PM) fibers
• doped Fibers
• plastic optical fibers (POF)
• other optical fibers like large-core MM fibers, photonic crystal fibers (PCF) or photonic bandgap fibers

Cover your specific requirements with features like:

• extended temperature range
• high core index of refraction
• different numerical aperture
• bend insensitivity
• variations of cladding diameters
• different coating options ranging from acrylate to aluminium or gold for very high temperatures

Our suppliers have all the capabilities to design and fabricate a custom optical fiber exactly tailored to your specifications.

Fibercore has delivered over 40 years of innovation and excellence in developing and manufacturing speciality optical fiber. All of our fiber products have been developed with our customers in mind with market leading capabilities to produce an extensive range of fibers including;

• single-mode (SM) fiber
• doped fiber
• polarization-maintaining (PM) fiber
• multimode (MM) fiber
• multicore fiber
• spun HiBi fiber

We are continuously expanding our product ranges to cover wider and more demanding customer applications. So if you have a specific development project or require a custom fiber, we would like to discuss it further with you. We will work together with you to find the best solution.

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.

Optical fibers from TOPTICA: ideally suited for TOPTICA's tunable diode lasers:

• polarization maintaining (PM)
• high power, AR, and fiber splitters/combiners
• wide wavelength coverage (350 nm – 1625 nm)
• ideal match for FiberDock & FiberOut
• individual fiber options for various applications

We offer single-mode, polarization-maintaining or multimode fiber cables. PCF fiber cables and special braodband RGB fibers are also available.

Exail (formerly 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.

Effective dispersion compensation is a key requirement for many applications involving ultrafast lasers and broadband optical signals. Cycle can offer a variety of dispersion compensating fibers to satisfy the needs of your application. Our products include:

• single-mode dispersion compensating fibers (SM-DCF) and
• polarization-maintaining dispersion compensating fibers (PM-DCF)

with different connector types and customized lengths. Please contact us for more information.

We offer a large range of fiber products from award winning fiber technology.

HCPCF stands out by guiding light in a hollow channel surrounded by a microstructured cladding.

GLO is a pioneering industrial player in this field by offering its partners varied and bespoke HCPCF. A Photonic Micro-Cell (PMC) is a length of HCPCF filled with a gas in a controllable fashion and hermetically sealed. PMC offers strong gas–light interaction.
