Abstract
The dimensional quality of lightguide fiber determines connector design and splice loss in high-quality lightguide communication systems. Consequently, the outer diameter and the ellipticity of the lightguide fiber are important factors to be measured and controlled during the manufacturing process.1 For compatible system components, it is imperative that calibrated diameter measurement techniques exist.
