Fibers and Probes

If a spectrometer is the heart of an Ocean Optics system, and its light source the lungs, then fibers and probes are the circulatory system – the conduits through which light travels to reach the extremities and bring life to the measurement of a sample.

The power to move light

Our patch cords come in a variety of core sizes for optimizing throughput.  Bifurcated fibers and splitters are Y-shaped assemblies for routing light from one location to two others.

Probing your samples

Fiber probes act as sampling accessories, often with built-in light routing.  They allow direct measurements of liquids, powders, and flames, as well as solids.

Making the connection

Our fiber and probe accessories take the measurement one step further.  They assist you in connecting and holding your probes and fibers, whether you are working on an optical bench, in the field, at a microscope, or in a vacuum chamber.

Stock the lab!

If you’re new to fiber optic spectrometers, or are setting up a new lab, our optical fiber kits can help you get started quickly. Stocked with an array of patchcords and handy fiber accessories, you’ll have a hard time deciding – the UV optical fiber kit, or the VIS optical fiber kit?
