The project aims to develop an optical fibre that will work for guiding light in the infrared part of the spectrum, with the aim of transferring high power. We believe we can make a fibre that works better than other infrared fibres by incorporating current hollow fibre technology with other materials to realise a higher-level of functionality. This means that new fibre fabrication techniques will need to be developed to achieve this goal. The benefit to developing this technique is that it should be adaptable to a range of materials.Having a fibre that guides high power in the infrared is that it brings all the benefits of optical fibres to infrared lasers, including those used in machining like CO and CO2 lasers.The project will also provide photonics for some future systems as it will provide a solution to the company that is part funding the project. This means that we will need to work on issues with its application and how to integrate the fibre into an already existing set of systems, not just focus on the development of the technology.

该项目旨在开发一种光纤，用于引导光谱红外部分的光，目的是传输高功率。我们相信，通过将当前的中空纤维技术与其他材料相结合，我们可以制造出比其他红外纤维更好的纤维，以实现更高水平的功能。这意味着需要开发新的纤维制造技术来实现这一目标。开发这项技术的好处是它应该适用于一系列材料。拥有一种在红外线中引导高功率的光纤，它将把光纤的所有好处带到红外激光器中，包括那些用于加工的CO和CO2激光器。该项目还将为未来的一些系统提供光子学，因为它将为部分资助该项目的公司提供解决方案。这意味着我们将需要解决其应用问题以及如何将光纤集成到现有的一套系统中，而不仅仅是专注于技术的开发。
