Fiber metallization, also called gold (nickel) plating of the fiber side surface, enables gold metallization of optical fibers or other waveguide materials and is important for all-metal hermetic packaging of optical devices. It can replace the widely used polymer bonding approach, addressing polymer aging, creep, and poor high-temperature resistance. It has broad applications and prospects in areas requiring high reliability and stability, such as high-speed communications, submarine communications, military and defense, and aerospace.
