Özet:

 

DC glow discharge plasma of power 40 W was applied to step index polymer   optical fibers for different exposure times. Nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen   gases were used to obtain the glow discharge. The fiber core material was   poly methyl methacrylate and the cladding was fluorinated polymer. The   effect of plasma on the optical parameters, such as core index profile,   cladding index, and the numerical aperture, was studied by multiple beam   interference fringes and Fourier transformation of infrared spectroscopy   spectra. It was found that the plasma treatment affected the optical   parameters of both the cladding and the core regions of optical fibers. The   optical parameters also changed with the treatment time. The hydrogen plasma   had effects greater than those of nitrogen and oxygen plasma. These observed   results can be explained by the effect of the electric field during plasma   treatment. The studied optical fibers after plasma treatment can be used as   inverted-graded index with its important applications.
