Low Modal Volume Single Crystal Sapphire Optical Fiber

This research provides the first known procedure for cleanly and consistently reducing the diameter of single-crystal sapphire optical fiber (SCSF) below the limits of standard production methods, including the first production of subwavelength-diameter optical fiber (SDF) composed of single-crystal...
