basic information
As common specifications for standard products, 1. For SMF (Single Mode Fiber), the coating materials include acrylate, polyimide, ORMOCER, fluoropolymer, carbon, and others. 2. The applicable signal light wavelength is centered around the 1.5μm band, with compatibility for the 1.3μm band, 0.85μm band, and other specified wavelengths. 3. FBG can be provided as a standalone unit or with mounting housing and packaging options. 4. Connector installation is possible. 5. The number of FBGs processed, their positions, the overall product length, and the length of the fiber pig tail can be specified. Additionally, we also manufacture custom products for special fibers such as radiation-resistant fibers, multi-core fibers, pure silica cores, and resin fibers. FBG processing employs existing phase mask exposure or maskless techniques depending on the manufacturer and product, and we also offer high-reliability, high-weather-resistance products through a direct exposure process without fiber coating stripping and re-coating.

Company information
Our company started as a trading firm specializing in optical communication devices and subsystems based on optical and electronic applied technologies, with fiber optic sensing systems as our core business as a VAR and integrator. We operate in a wide range of industrial fields, from infrastructure and aerospace to automotive, medical, and consumer sectors. The name "First Light" derives from "dawn" and "first observation light" (as in astronomical telescopes), and we quickly deliver excellent technologies and products with "light" as a keyword to the market. Our core competencies are in electronic circuits and measurement, as well as optical communication and measurement technologies. In collaboration with partner companies, we are expanding our business areas, including software development and sensing data analysis, to flexibly respond to customer needs. Utilizing our network with over 40 advanced technology companies, primarily in Europe and the United States, we serve as a one-stop shop covering not only product sales but also system construction proposals, consultations, and contract testing and evaluation services for optical devices. Our important mission is to solve customer challenges and contribute to society through our business. 【Contact and request for materials: sales@firstlight-inc.com】
