Catastrophic damage and accelerated ageing in bent fibres caused by high optical powers
Catastrophic optical fibre damage effects have been known about for some time, but this effect typically needs external initiation and therefore can be avoided in most instances. It is shown for the first time that catastrophic damage can occur in fibre carrying high optical powers when it is bent q...
