- Title
Thinner walls enable reduced-cost fibers.
- Abstract
The article reports on the development of a process which reduces the production time of hollow-core optical fibers from around a week to a single day. This process has reportedly been developed by researchers at the University of Bath in England. Initial tests reveal that the fiber is superior in virtually every respect to previous processes, making it a significant step in the development of technologies in which light instead of electrical circuits carry information.
