Abstract
The properties of an optical fibre are affected by room temperature va riation. At constant temperature, the properties are determined by the physical properties of the glass. However, during and after a tempera ture change, the optical properties are affected by the fibre stress c aused by the differential thermal expansion coefficient between the gl ass and fibre coating materials.
