Hard-Clad Silica Fiber (HCS Fiber)
Hard-Clad Silica Fiber (HCS Fiber) is a specially designed optical fiber with a pure silica core and a hard polymer cladding material (e.g., fluorinated polyacrylate). This structure combines the high transmission performance of silica fiber with the mechanical strength and cost advantages of polymer cladding, making it widely applicable in communication, sensing, and industrial fields.
