AbstractHermetically metal coated fibers are candidates for applications at high temperatures. To date, various metals with melting point up to 1400 °C have been used to coat fibers by the freezing technique. However, the major problems consist of ensuring mechanical reliability and acceptable optical losses in metal coated fibers at high temperatures. We present an experimental study of the temperature effects at 20 – 1050 °C on the performance of optical fibers with copper coating. Specific fiber degradation mechanism have been revealed

<p>An important factor determining the quality of optical fibers is their mechanical reliability. The control of the mechanical reliability allows define the lifetime of a fiber, which was under the stress during the work. Decisive influences on the mechanical and optical properties of the optical fibers have the protective coatings. Optical fiber technology requires that the coatings were applied on them on-line, directly after they have been drawn. So far, little attention has been paid to optimizing the conditions of coatings curing. In this work, the comparison of a thermoanalytical and spectroscopic analysis of coatings that were cured in an UV oven in which the power of the UV lamps was changed will be shown. As part of the research tasks, completed mechanical strength measurements were made with a silica fiber of 0.125 mm diameter.</p>
