    Specialty optical fibers are rapidly moving beyond niche applications.
    FIGURE 1. Three-dimensional shape sensing promises to facilitate procedures such as coronary angioplasty with highly accurate GPS-like guidance provided by feedback from the optical fiber, which exhibits strain when bent; this application is enabled by a highly complex optical fiber such as the spun seven-core SM-7C 1500(6.1/125).
    Leading-edge manufacturing processes have enabled the production of optical fibers robust and flexible enough to address an exciting new range of biomedical applications.
    H.I.G. Capital has sold Fibercore to sensor company Humanetics Innovative Solutions.

    Shown are an end-face image of Fibercore's spun multicore fiber, SSM-7C 1500(6.1/125; a) and a diagram of the cores taking a helical path down the length of the fiber with FBGs distributed along the length of each core (b). The multicore fiber end-face image was measured on an IFA-100 fiber index profiler.
    Moving beyond conventional fiber-optic sensing, novel types and configurations of sensing fibers provide new capabilities for minimally invasive surgery.

    FIGURE 1. A near-infrared pulsed laser signal is sent down an optical fiber, creating Rayleigh, Brillouin, and Raman backscattering—all of which are used for different types of distributed sensing, as seen in this spectral schematic. Brillouin and Raman scattering occur via the Stokes and anti-Stokes processes.
    Optical fibers used for sensing can measure temperature, strain, pressure, sound, electrical current, and even the 3D shape of the fiber itself.

    FIGURE 1. The properties of microstructure or photonic-crystal fiber depend on air gaps within the cladding to create an average refractive index that is significantly lower than that of the typically solid silica core.
    Despite handling and manufacturing challenges, photonic-crystal or microstructure optical fiber is beginning its transition from technical curiosity to killer technology.
