An optical fiber and a method of fabrication thereof. The optical fiber includes a core; a cladding surrounding the core; a primary metal coating surrounding the cladding and including a noble metal having a melting point of at least 500 degrees Celsius; and a secondary metal coating surrounding the primary coating and having a melting point higher than the melting point of the primary metal coating, a thickness of the primary metal coating being greater than a thickness of the secondary metal coating.

Optical fibers with two metal coatings surrounding the cladding

Embodiments of the invention relate to a hydrogen-resistant optical fiber with a core having a central axis. The core may include only silica, or only silica and fluorine, while a cladding region surrounding the core may be made of silica and fluorine, along with at least one of germanium, phosphorus, and titanium.

Hydrogen-resistant optical fiber

Embodiments of the invention relate to a single-polarization fiber that may include a W-type refractive-index profile having a depressed region along an unguided principal axis of the fiber, and a quasi step-index profile along a guided principal axis of the fiber. The quasi step-index profile may have a depressed region with a radial extent at least twice that of the depressed region along the unguided axis.

Single-polarization fiber

A pusher mechanism for pushing bottles formed in an I.S. machine from a dead plate to a conveyor. The pusher mechanism includes a pusher finger assembly which is supported by a housing and is movable about an axis of support and about the parallel axis of rotation of the housing. A pair of servo motors effect the desired rotation of the two axes through cam profiles each of which has at least one Bezier curve segment with a parameter of one curve linked to a parameter of the other curve.
