ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic structure comprising an optical fiber having a body of material deposited upon the exterior surface such that the body of material is sufficiently strong and rigid to permit processing of the fiber for various fiber optics applications. The process for forming the fiber optic structure involves the electroplating of a body of material upon the exterior surface of the optical fiber which is to be processed. A built-up body of fiber allows coupling structures to be created. The built-up body enables the fiber to be used as liquid level sensors and other types of mode strippers.
