摘要：

Optical fiber is drawn from a dual-head 3D printer fabricated preform made of two optically transparent plastics with a high-index core (NA similar to 0.25, V > 60). The asymmetry observed in the fiber arises from asymmetry in the 3D printing process. The highly multimode optical fiber has losses measured by cut-back as low as alpha similar to 0.44 dB/cm in the near IR. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America
