ASQR/SSQR Square Core MM Fibers

Product information "ASQR/SSQR Square Core MM Fibers"

Multi Mode, Square Core; 190 to 2400 nm; Core Size 100 to 1000 µm; Coating Acrylate, Nylon, Polyimide; Numerical Aperture 0.22

Fiberguide’s Anhydroguide™ (ASQR) and Superguide™ (SSQR) series of square silica core, doped round cladding multi mode optical fibers excel in specific applications where traditional circular core fibers with Gaussian outputs are not ideal. The uniform “top hat” intensity profile these fibers provide are the desired output profile when performing tasks such as welding, photolithography, and spectroscopy.

Square core fibers with round claddings are also excellent candidates for use in the laser diode industry, where the square shape enables a more ideal coupling match with the diode source. Fiberguide offers pure silica square core fibers with a fluorine doped cladding (0.22 NA) in a wide range of core diameters from 100 μm to 1000 μm.

While the ASQR series features a low hydroxyl ion concentration (low OH) and works in the visible to IR range, SSQR variants with high hydroxyl ion concentration are suitable for the UV to visible range. Options include Acrylate, Polyimide and Nylon coatings as well as anti-reflective coatings like standard thin film coatings or RARe Motheye nano-surfacing. This anti-reflective technology enhances fiber transmission performance and significantly increases the damage threshold for your application over a large wavelength range.

Key Features:

  • Homogenized Output Distribution
  • Top Hat Beam Profile
  • Greater Capture Area than Round Fibers for Square Inputs
  • Step Index Multi Mode Fibers
  • Square Silica Core / Doped Round Cladding
  • Coatings: Acrylate, Nylon, Polyimide
  • Core Sizes: 100 to 1000 µm
  • Typical Clad/Core Ratio (RD Clad): 1.2 (Diagonal to Clad OD)
  • Wavelengths: SSQR (High OH) 190 to 1250 nm, ASQR (Low OH) 300 to 2400 nm
  • Numerical Aperture (NA): 0.22 ±0.02
  • 100% Proof Test Using 4-Axis Bend Method


Applications: Laser Materials Processing; Astronomical Spectroscopy; Non-circular Diode Beam Coupling; Photolithography

NEOCLEAN Optical Connector Cleaners
Cleaning Tools for Connectors, Plugs & Adapters; Pen, Simple or Stick Types; Connector Types MU, LC, SC, SC2, FC, FAS, FA, ST, E2000, PC/APC, ODC, MPO, MPT, ATC, Ø1.25 mm, Ø2.5mm; No Alcohol or Solvents NTT-AT’s NEOCLEAN series of fiber optical connector cleaners are tools that combine compactness with the workability of one-push cleaning. NEOCLEAN tools remove dirt you can’t even see, without scratching the connector’s end face. Designed to work with dedicated microfiber tissue, the NEOCLEAN series of fiber optical connector cleaners allows all operators to consistently achieve high quality cleaning without alcohol or other solvents.With NEOCLEAN-E, NEOCLEAN-EZ and NEOCLEAN-M/M2, the NEOCLEAN line of pen type fiber optical connector cleaners provides a line-up of nine different high performance hybrid type cleaners that provide cleaning for a broad range of both optical connector plugs and adaptors in one unit. The NEOCLEAN-E simple one push action cleans the ferrule end face in device adapters. Its cleaning cartridge is replaceable, with each cartridge performing about 750 cleanings, greatly reducing cleaning costs. Using the attached cap you can also the clean ferrule end face in plugs. The NEOCLEAN-EZ line features an especially compact body, designed for cleaning in the narrow spaces of optical connector ports with a one push action. Simply remove the front tip cap to clean optical plugs. Fixing the attachment to the rear end allows you to also clean deeply recessed optical ports. NEOCLEAN-EZv is developed exclusively for easy cleaning of 2 mm broadcasting and video optical connectors, while NEOCLEAN-EZ3 can clean 2.5 mm optical connector ports and plugs as well as 2 mm video connectors. NEOCLEAN-EZ1Plus can clean 1.25 mm optical connector ports, ODC plugs and ODC sockets. The NEOCLEAN-M series of pen type cleaners allows you to instantly clean MPO/MTP connectors. NEOCLEAN-M for 12-core systems and NEOCLEAN-M2 for 16-core systems respond to the need for end face cleaning. NTT-AT’s NEOCLEAN-R2 line of simple type fiber optical connector cleaners uses cleaning tape that does not produce dust and provides special cleaning strength while resisting foreign particles to mix into the tape. A simplified tape advance mechanism resulted in cost reductions for both manufacturing and assembly. The main body is also made from anti-static material.Also made with antistatic materials, the NEOCLEAN-S line of stick type fiber optical connector cleaners controls the generation of static electricity during the cleaning process. And just as with the reel type, the cloth in the cleaning part is made from special cleaning fiber. Featuring 1.25 mm or 2.5 mm ends, NEOCLEAN-S is a very useful tool for cleaning connector end faces inserted into adaptors and housings. Key Features: Compact Design- Easy to Use and Efficient No Alcohol or Solvents Pen, Simple and Stick Types Available Cost Effective Replaceable Cartridge (NEOCLEAN-E) Excellent Anti-static Properties Applications: Cleaning of Single Core and Multi Core Fiber Optical Connectors, Plugs & Adapters; Cleaning of Fiber Optical Connectors for Video Equipment
