Polymicro
Technologies, LLC. will feature technologies at SPIE 2003, the 48th
Annual Meeting of The International Society for Optical Engineering in
San Diego, California.
Featuring Exciting
new X-Ferrule™
Technology
Phoenix, AZ - June 9, 2003 - Polymicro Technologies, LLC, the
world-leader manufacturer and supplier in synthetic fused silica
capillary tubing
will feature
new X-Ferrule™ Technology at the 48th Annual Meeting of The International Society for
Optical Engineering, SPIE, in San Diego, California, August 5 - 6,
Booth 728.
The exciting new X-Ferrule™
technology provides low stress hermetic
sealing of quartz/silica ferrules to fiber without epoxy.
X-Ferrule™ Fiber Pigtail Assembly
-
Fused quartz proprietary X-Ferrule™ design
- Fiber directly fusion welded to
ferrule
- Used with standard/specialty SM
fibers
- Can be adapted to other fiber
types/sizes
- Soft UV-cured adhesive strain relief
for added fiber protection
- Custom cabling to meet your design
requirements
Advantages
- Epoxy-less structural bong design
- Strong hermetic seal due to fusion
weld
- Improved material thermal property
match to the fiber
- Very low insertion loss
- Avoids troublesome fiber
metalization
- High strength and purity of fused
quartz: resists chipping and cracking
- High chemical resistance
- Excellent for high
temperature/pressure environments

About SPIE
SPIE—THE
INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR OPTICAL ENGINEERING-- The Society was
founded in 1955 to bring together engineers from several technical
disciplines involved in high-speed, optically based test and
measurement. Since then, the field of optical engineering has evolved
from a multidisciplinary amalgam of physics, electrical and mechanical
engineering, and materials science into an identifiable discipline in
its own right. Simultaneously, SPIE has grown into a vital
international organization that addresses virtually all subfields
associated with optics and photonics technologies and their many
engineering, scientific, and commercial applications.
