methacrylate (PMMA) as well as a thin sheath. In order to enable the guidance of light using the effect of
total reflection in the core, the usually very thin sheath consists of fluorinated PMMA, which has a low
refractive index. The core diameters lie between 0.06 and 1 mm, as a result of which simple plug

fibers and the unnecessarily high expenditure associated with it can usually be dispensed with. The
