Abstract:
Hollow SiO 2 - and GeO 2 -based glass waveguides were fabricated for mid-infrared light transmission. By changing the percentage of Si or Ge atoms in the glass systems, we can control the low-loss wavelength range which appears near the resonance absorption peak. Efficient transmission was demonstrated in the 7–12 µ m wavelength range by using hollow waveguides made of pure- SiO 2 , (SiO 2 ) 63 (TiO 2 ) 16 (Na 2 O) 21 , and (GeO 2 ) 80 (Ta 2 O 5 ) 10 (K 2 O) 10 glasses. For a CO 2 laser of 10.6 µ m wavelength, the lowest loss of 1.1 dB/m was attained with the waveguide of 1 mm diameter.
