Summary: | The apparatus holds a section of an optical fiber in a fixed plane while permitting the tension on the optical fiber to be adjusted. The holder is configured to provide complete access to the optical fiber for chemical etching, ion beam etching, coating operations, and the like. The holder also protects the fiber during processing operations, such as the formation of gratings, when the optical fiber is weak and subject to handling damage. The holder is also suitable for use with fine wires, rods, and the like. |
