Structure ofoptical fiber
Fiber optics is a way of sending information through thin fibers, or threads. The information may be sound, pictures, or computer codes. This information travels through the fibers in the form of light.
The fibers, known as optical fibers, can be made of glass or plastic. They are about as big around as a human hair. Many fibers are bundled together to form a fiber-optic cable. Fiber-optic cables link some telephones and computers. Doctors also use fiber-optic instruments to see inside the human body.

Freezing air, 30,000 plus feet altitudes and fog, ultra-thin Parylene conformal coatings can withstand all these extreme environments.
In a fiber-optic system, a machine called a transmitter turns information into light. Then the transmitter sends the light through optical fibers. The inner part of each fiber is called the core. A reflective material surrounds the core. This material is known as cladding.

Frequent exposure to chemicals, fumes and dust make it challenging to design mission-critical components that contain sensitive devices.
The cladding keeps the light moving through the fiber. Light will move in a straight line easily, but it will not turn a corner without help. As the light moves at a high speed through the core, it bounces off the cladding. If the fiber has a bend in it, the light can bounce off the cladding and turn the corner to follow the bend. The cladding also keeps the light from losing its strength. The light can travel quickly over long distances. At the end of the fibers, a machine called a receiver accepts the light. The receiver turns the light back into sound, pictures, or computer codes.
As one of few Parylene conformal coating providers with decades of experience, Advanced Coating remains result driven and applies out-of-the-box thinking to any project. We focus on dynamic high mix, low volume production capabilities thru flexible planning and the capacity to facilitate on the fly changes to meet customer needs.
Most telephone cables used to be made of copper wires. Fiber-optic cables are better than old-fashioned copper wires in many ways. Fiber-optic cables are small and light. They can carry a lot of information with little interference. Fiber-optic cables are also less likely to catch fire than copper wires. However, fiber-optic cables are expensive. They also break more easily than copper wires.
The room-temperature deposition process makes Parylene suitable for many substrates including silicone elastomer components.
