SCHOTT's fiber optic tapers provide a method of magnifying or reducing an image in image transfer applications with minimum distortion. All tapers are fabricated to customer-specific requirements and can be machined into configurations from round to round, square to square, round to square or rectangular; sizes range up to 100 mm in diameter with larger sizes currently under development. Typical magnification ratios range up to 3:1, with other magnification ratios available upon request. SCHOTT's taper material provides for a numerical aperture of 1.0 on the small end. Common fiber sizes range from 6 µm to 25 µm at the large end, and are typically in the 3 µm to 6 µm range on the small end. In general, SCHOTT's glass types are designed for use in the visible or near IR spectrum.
