DOMAILLE ENGINEERING OS7000M Laser Cleaving VS Manual Cleaving
The images presented compare the results of laser cleaving with manual cleaving using scanning electron microscope (SEM) images at various magnifications. Below are the details and specifications of each technique as observed under the SEM.
- Magnification 30x: The first image shows a fibre cleaved by a laser with a clean, consistent cut.
- Magnification 300x: A closer look at the laser-cleaved fibre reveals a smooth circular end-face.
- Magnification 600x: The third image provides an even closer view, showcasing the precision of the laser cleaving method.
- Magnification 30x: The first image displays a manually cleaved fibre with noticeable surface imperfections and an irregular cut.
- Magnification 300x: At a higher magnification, the end-face irregularities and debris around the cleaved area are more apparent.
- Magnification 600x: The highest magnification image highlights the roughness and lack of uniformity in the manual cleaving process.
Specifications
| Feature | Laser Cleaved | Manual Cleaved |
|---|---|---|
| Magnification Levels | 30x, 300x, 600x | 30x, 300x, 600x |
| End-Face Quality | Smooth and precise | Rough and irregular |
| Debris Presence | Minimal | Noticeable |
FAQ
- What is the benefit of using laser cleaving over manual cleaving?
- Laser cleaving provides a more precise and smooth cut with minimal debris, which is critical for optimal fibre optic performance.
- Are different magnifications used to evaluate the cleaving methods?
- Yes, both laser and manual cleaved fibres are evaluated at 30x, 300x, and 600x magnifications for a thorough comparison.
- Can imperfections on a manually cleaved fibre affect performance?
- Yes, the roughness and irregularities present in manually cleaved fibres can lead to suboptimal connections and signal loss.
