Single-Mode ZBLAN Fiber
ZSF-xx/yyy-N-z.zz
Single Mode ZBLAN fiber can transmit light up to 4 μm, and its dispersion can be tailored by adjusting the core size and numerical aperture. It is now most commonly used for Mid-IR supercontinuum generation, as well as femtosecond soliton generanation via Soliton Self Frequency Shift.
It can also be used as a beam delivery fiber for Mid-IR (in particular, spectroscopy), as there are many strong absorption bands due to C-H and N-H vibration in the 3-μm band.
