Electroless Nickel-Phosphor-Boron Plating and Electroplate Nickel on Surface of Optical Fiber

Article Preview

Abstract:

This work presents a method for metal coating of the surface of optical fiber by means of electroless and electroplating. No vacuum techniques or any high-temperature methods are required. The coating method presented in this work is developed with emphasis to further embedding the coated fibres into solid metal using. The method is based on electroless and electroplating, and therefore, the fibres can be coated with any metal or metal alloy applicable by this technique.
