IR fibres for spectroscopy and high-temperature applications

Laser Components has expanded its portfolio of high-performance infrared fibres with two new product lines: metal-coated silica fibres and polycrystalline infrared (PIR) fibres. Designed for demanding analytical and industrial environments, the fibres support applications in spectroscopy, sensor systems, medical diagnostics, and advanced processing technologies.

PIR fibres are manufactured from a specially engineered polycrystalline material with high optical transparency, enabling efficient transmission across the mid-infrared range. Their low attenuation makes them particularly suitable for IR spectroscopy and other analytical measurement systems requiring stable signal transmission.

Metal-coated fibres are engineered for use in extreme operating conditions where conventional fibres fail. They maintain performance under high or low temperatures, vacuum, moisture, and chemically aggressive environments, making them well suited for robust instrumentation setups.

“With these fibre technologies, we are addressing applications that require both precision and reliability under challenging conditions,” says Florian Tächl, Product Manager at Laser Components. “Customers benefit from durable solutions that maintain consistent optical performance even in demanding analytical environments.”
