Enhancing side illumination of plastic optical fiber by using TiO2 particles and CO2 laser

Original language description

Plastic optical fiber (POF) is highly appreciated for its applications in glowing textiles. However, fabricating thin POF with good side illuminating effect is a challenge due to the complicated manufacturing processes. CO2 laser treatment is normally applied to enhance the surface roughness without significant influence on other properties of materials. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is widely studied for its high photo activity and thermal stability. The surface modification combined with TiO2 particles andCO2 laser treatment was carried out to investigate the side illuminating effect of POF. The images of surface morphology show that TiO2 particles reduce the thermal damage of POF surface during CO2 laser treatment. The results from side illumination testing prove that the employment of TiO2 particles, combined with CO2 laser treatment, could enhance the side illumination of POF for longer lasting application. Cyclic CO2 laser treatment can decrease the heat accumulation in POF and may ha
