ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber is surrounded by a protective cladding of a liquid crystal material and fabricated by passing the optical fiber through a die member which operates to deposit relatively thin individual high-strength layers built up to a desired thickness. In another embodiment, the desired thickness is achieved by surrounding the optical fiber or fibers with a plurality of individual high-strength strands of liquid crystal polymer collectively compressed about the optical fiber(s).
