Review of the 18th International Conference on Plastic Optical Fibers (POF 2009)
The recently concluded Sydney POF 2009 conference was attended by over 120 people. A number of new developments were announced at the event including high temperature POF operating at 125°C and 5 Gbps over 100 meters of microstructured POF.
Topics addressed at the conference include themes of historic significance to POF researchers, as well as those which will exercise our minds over the next five years: Datacom networks & FTTX, sensors, devices, components, fiber & system design, cabling & connectors, transmitters & receivers, industrial, auto & aero application, illumination, standards & characterization, materials & fabrication, THz transmission and materials and medical applications.
