- Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to prepare an integrating light propagative, transparent and conductive optical fiber. This optical fiber is made by the coating of a thin layer of indium tin oxide (ITO) nanofibers. ITO nanofibers are fabricated via centrifugal spinning process and wrap around the quartz optical fiber. Field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, UV-Vis spectrophotometer, Avometer and Luminance colorimeter are used to characterize the morphology, crystal structure and photoelectric properties of ITO-coated optical fiber. Results show that the resistivity of ITO-coated optical fiber is around 0.87 (Ω cm); the average optical transmittance is more than 85 % in the visible range, and the ITO-coated optical fiber has a certain light propagation. This work laid the groundwork for future application in fiber sensors.
