摘要：

Fluorocarbon polymer-coated silver hollow-glass waveguides have been fabricated based on the method of silver mirror reaction for silver, and the dipping method for the fluorocarbon polymer, The waveguides show low-loss properties for the infrared wavelengths except for the wavelength regions of large absorption of the polymer, Er:YAG laser light has been successfully transmitted through the flexible waveguides with small bending losses.
