Mechanical Properties of Phosphate Glass Optical Fibers

Abstract: In this work, step-index 40/125 lm diameter optical fibers produced from two slightly different lithium phosphate glasses were subjected to mechanical characterization. Tensile tests were carried out on fibers with gage length from 10 to 150 mm, allowing for the determination of the failure stress (ranging from %200 to 400 MPa) and the elastic modulus (60 GPa). Some tests were also performed with the fiber "immersed" in water; an important subcritical crack growth effect was pointed out, and a fatigue suscepti… Show more

“…(24) If 3-coordinated (trigonal) B changed to 4-coordinated (tetrahedral) B under the indentation process by absorbing part of the mechanical energy, then such absorption might result in cracks with shorter lengths. To test this hypothesis, the ELNES of boron K-edge in borosilicate glass before and after indentation were analyzed and compared.…”

“…Phosphate glasses have extensive applications in optical communication, , high power laser, optical switching devices, , and other photonics applications because of their high compositional flexibility and high solubility of rare-earth ions . Rare earth oxide doped phosphate glasses have high stimulated emission cross sections, moderate phonon energies and low nonlinear coefficients.…”
