Abstract:-A review of optical fibre nanowires and their applications is presented. 3) Extreme flexibility and configurability: OFNs show an extraordinary mechanical strength and can easily be bent and manipulated. Bend radii of the order of a few microns can be readily achieved with relatively low induced bend loss [2, 24] allowing for highly compact devices with complex geometry e.g. 3D multi-ring resonators [16][17][18][19][20]. 4) Low-loss interconnection to other optical fibres and fiberised components: OFNs are fa… Show more
