ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to coated optical devices, such as optical fibers and optical wave guides, and methods for forming coated optical devices. Methods for forming coated optical devices comprise providing at least one optical device and contacting at least a portion of at least one optical device with at least one coating composition comprising at least one metal-nitrogen polymer. The at least one coating composition may further comprise at least one multifunctional organic electrophile comprising at least one monomer, oligomer, or polymer comprising a plurality of organic electrophilic substituents. The coating composition contacting at least a portion of an optical device is at least partially crosslinked, thereby forming coated optical devices which exhibit enhanced resistance to, for example, deterioration resulting from, among other things, exposure to chemicals and environmental factors.
