  • Abstract
    Buckling was observed under hydraulic pressure in a multi-mode plastic-coated optical fibre with a buffer layer. The optical loss increase by buckling was examined. It was found that the occurrence of buckling can be estimated from the relationship between compressibility and Young´s modulus of the coating materials.
