Abstract:
Provided is a cladded single crystal sapphire optical fiber. In one embodiment, the innovation provides a method for forming a cladding in a single crystal sapphire optical fiber by reactor irradiation. The reactor irradiation creates ions external to the fiber that enter the fiber, displace atoms in the fiber, and are implanted in the fiber, thus modifying the index of refraction of the fiber near the surface of the fiber and creating a cladding in the sapphire fiber.

Claim (Index 10):
A method of making a cladded sapphire optical fiber comprising irradiating a single crystal sapphire optical fiber with high energy charged particles that are emitted in a neutron, charged particle reaction from a neutron source using a Reactor as a source of neutrons to create an internal refractive cladding within the single crystal sapphire optical fiber.
