In addition to the company’s Optran Plus specialty fibres, CeramOptec introduces Optran Ultra, which offers even higher NAs of 0.37, 0.44, and 0.53. Targeted at the industrial, sensor, medical diagnostic and specialty markets, the Optran Ultra and Optran Plus lines are well-suited for applications from industrial spectroscopy to laser welding, from medical sensing to delivering photodynamic therapy, these fibres exhibit exceptional spectral transmission from 350 to 2200nm.

For penetration to even shorter wavelengths, the Optran Plus UV offers transmission from 190 to 1200nm without solarisation.

The innovative leader of the fibre optic industry, CeramOptec manufactures its own preforms.

The company uses a proprietary PCVD process to create high-grade specialty fibres with a wide range of profiles and dopants, numerical apertures from 0.12 to 0.66, and high radiation resistance levels.

Fibres are drawn in-house before being assembled into fibre optic bundles and assemblies.

This ensures customers the finest transmission, highest temperature capability, and widest range of numerical apertures.

The fibres are available off-the-shelf for immediate delivery.
