The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) is supporting development of novel coating materials and processes for optimized optical fiber for use in the harsh aerospace environment. Specifically NAVAIR desires fiber of improved bending strength and water corrosion resistance, capable of performing in a high temperature environment with ease of termination. In our previous papers we reported a new type of thermally resistant non strippable coating inorganic-organic hybrid called "hybrid glass". In those studies the hybrid glass coating was applied on optical fibers as a single UV curable layer, bonded covalently to the fiber that provided it with enhanced strength and environmental durability. Additional benefits included smaller fiber diameter, minimal bend radius and ease of termination. This study is a continuation of our effort to assess the protective properties of high temperature hybrid glass coating on optical fibers inserted in aerospace cables. The research also includes a strippable version of hybrid glass coating. This paper discusses test results of hybrid glass performance on cabled multimode and single mode optical fibers coated with strippable and non strippable hybrid glass coatings.

We propose a nanophotonic modulator structure based on silicon photonic crystal slot waveguide filled with electro-optic polymer. The slow photon effect in conjunction with the strong optical confinement enhances the electro-optic coefficient over 2500 times.

We present a novel high resolution optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR) specially designed for avionics fiber optic testing. Applications of this universal tool include fault location, insertion/return-loss measurements and loss budget analysis.

By deploying automated manufacturing for fiber optic cable assemblies, significant benefits can be realized in both quality and reliability. Automation eliminates the variances in the process that can lead to issues in the fielded cable products. Hidden defects within the terminus can be eliminated to ensure operation in demanding environments. With the existence of this automated technology, benefits can be realized today for mission critical, military/aerospace applications.
