Abstract :
Advances in the bandwidth property of perfluorinated (PF) polymer based graded-index polymer optical fibers were described. It was clarified that the small material dispersion of PF polymer enabled 10 Gb/s order data transmission, which was considered to be difficult by the conventional silica based multimode fiber.
