发明名称 OPTICAL FIBER OUTER DIMENSION VARIATION
摘要 An optical waveguide (10), such as an optical fiber, having a cladding (12) and a core (14), is provided with a variation of the outer dimension (an expanded region (16) or a recessed region (8)) over a predetermined length L of the waveguide (10). The variation (16, 8) provides a low-creep high-strength means for attaching the fiber (10) to a structure, e.g., for use in an optical sensor. The variation (16, 8) may have various different shapes and sizes. There may also be a buffer layer (18) over the cladding (12) and over all or a portion of the deformation (16, 8). Also, the fiber (10) exhibits low optical loss of light propagating in the core (14) through the deformation (16, 8).
