Abstract

To develop GI POFs which can be utilized for transmissions at 850 nm, not only do molecular vibrational absorptions of the base polymeric materials need to be considered, but also the dopants used. In this study, novel chlorinated aromatic dopants were synthesized and their effects on the optical and thermal properties of poly(pentafluorostyrene), which has the low-loss window at 850 nm, were studied. The polymer doped with a chlorinated dopant showed no absorption peak and retained the broad window around the source wavelength.
