Fuzed-Quartz Fibers. A Survey of Properties, Applications and Production Methods

Abstract

Fused-silica fibers have an important function in many measuring instruments used in scientific research. Much of the information on the production and fabrication methods and on the properties of the fibers is widely scattered throughout the technical literature. This Circular is a survey of this literature and a summary findings. A bibliography of pertinent references on the subject is included to provide the sources of more complete and detailed information necessary for specific applications.
