Liquid-core polymer optical fibers for luminescent waveguide applications

Luminescent polymer optical fibers provide a flexible platform for sensor applications. Photoluminescent liquid-core polymer optical fibers (LiCo-POFs), produced by a co-extrusion of a low refractive index semi-crystalline fluoropolymer sheath with a glycerol core, are presented. Substituting a POF&...
