Sapphire is a chemically and scratch-resistant material with a melting point of 2,072°C. MMI offers LHPG-grade sapphire fibers with diameters from 25 to 500 μm. In addition, fibers are available with an extended end through a tapered end. This is an important feature because the flexibility of the fiber is inversely proportional to the 4th power of the diameter (e.g., a 100 μm fiber is 16 times more flexible than a 200 μm fiber). Tapered fiber provides users with high throughput capability without sacrificing flexibility in energy transmission and spectroscopy applications. PTFE sheaths and/or connectors can be used for fibers larger than 100 μm in diameter.
