CorActive delivers a full range of Infrared Transmission (IRT) optical fibers to address beam delivery requirements in the mid-IR region. CorActive’s IRT series of infrared fiber solutions have been specifically designed to provide ultra low loss optical transmission while offering excellent mechanical properties. CorActive’s mid-IR fibers enable significant performance improvements in many applications that have relied on free space optics, low quality fiber or other beam delivery methods.
CorActive mid-IR transmission fiber is manufactured under an exclusive license agreement with the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL). NRL holds several key patents on infrared fiber manufacturing technologies and processes.
Two chalcogenide glass compositions are offered:
IRT-SU: Sulphide glass (As2S3) series offer the lowest absorption in the 2-6µm region.
IRT-SE: Selenide glass (As2Se3) series features the broadest transmission range from 2µm up to 9µm.
