Loss Mechanisms

ABSTRACTOptical fibers with attenuations much lower than those attainable in present-day silicate waveguides are possible in theory if mid-infrared operating wavelengths are used. The loss mechanisms, materials, and problems inherent in obtaining such fibers are discussed. Among several candidates, heavy metal fluoride glasses are suggested as being must suited to low and moderate loss fiber applications in the 2-5 micrometer spectral region.
