Side-hole optical fibre for wavelength 1300 nm

Abstract

Side-hole optical fibres are used for constructing pressure sensors because they have very high sensitivity to pressure and small sensitivity to temperature. To date this type of fibre has been produced for shorter wavelengths of 633 nm and 820 nm. This paper presents a new kind of side-hole optical fibres designed and developed for a wavelength of 1300 nm. Basic parameters of fibre were measured and compared with theoretical predictions.
