Xtreme Solarization-resistant Optical Fiber

High Transparency and Durability

Xtreme Solarization-resistant Optical Fiber and Probe Assemblies for spectroscopy are manufactured using a proprietary process that provides enhanced UV transmission (signal will transmit to 180 nm) and remarkable resistance to UV degradation, making it ideal for deep-UV applications (<300 nm). Ocean Optics is the only spectroscopy manufacturer to offer XSR Fiber.

Solarization in Typical Fibers

Solarization in Typical Fibers UV radiation below 300 nm degrades transmission in standard silica fibers, resulting in solarization (increased light absorption in the UV fiber that can invalidate data). For applications below 300 nm, we recommend our Premium-grade XSR Xtreme Solarization-resistant Fiber and Probe Assemblies, which are available for immediate delivery in standard lengths. Shorter lengths for solarization-resistant assemblies maximize UV throughput. Custom lengths are available; however, we recommend speaking with our Applications Scientists before ordering.

High Production Values

Our XSR products are part of our high-quality Premium-grade line of optical fibers and probes, which are high-quality assemblies that consistently deliver uniform results with minimal signal variance. XSR Fiber and Probe Assemblies are robust and durable; each assembly has an aluminum coating, stainless-steel BX jacketing, and our high-quality Premium-grade SMA 905 Connectors with captive end caps that protects fiber tips against scratches and contaminants. And like all of our optical fibers, the XSR assemblies are precisely polished to work with our miniature fiber optic spectrometers and accessories.

*  LTBR stands for Long Term Bend Radius, the bend radius allowed long term (such as for storage) before damaging the fiber.
** STBR stands for Short Term Bend Radius, the momentary bend radius allowed before damaging the fiber.
