• Fiber transmits high-resolution images

    New method produces very small fiber diameters, ranging from 2.5- up to 6-μm, to provide high-resolution, low-shear image transmission for coherent fiberoptic faceplates and tapers. The technology is used for medical x-ray, industrial x-ray, and display applications and is also used in night-vision applications and for high-resolution image intensification for commercial security applications.
