Figure 2 Figure 4
1,075 words... tests, including vibration, impact, and fiber retention, were performed to evaluate the strength of the bonds between the glass solder and the optical fibers and the substrate. For the fiber retention tests, standard singlemode fibers were secured to silica substrates with a small (- 2 mm diameter) bead of glass solder using the process described above. Tensile forces were then applied to the fiber leads by attaching weights of known mass. All five samples in this study were able to support ...
