Abstract
Improved infrared fibers of As2Se3were fabricated by the rod method. Losses values of less than 7dB/m at 10.6μm, about 1dB/m at 9.6 μm and about 0.1dB/m around 3.6μm were measured. The IR absorption spectra of the fibers and the glass preforms were studied in the range of 2.2-25 μm and exhibited similar absorption coefficient. The losses obtained by means of both tuneable CO2laser and FTIR spectrometer measurements agrees very well.
