Abstract
An optical-electrical conductor assembly is provided that includes an optical waveguide that has an outer organic jacket layer and a functional layer system disposed on the outer jacket layer of the optical waveguide. The functional later has a base layer portion with a single layer or a sequence of layers and an electrically conductive layer disposed on the base layer portion. The electrically conductive layer has a single layer or a sequence of layers.
Claims17
An optical-electrical conductor assembly, comprising:
- an optical waveguide having an outer organic jacket layer;
- and
- a functional layer system located on the outer organic jacket layer, the functional layer system comprises a base layer portion and an electrically conductive layer disposed as a coating having a uniform thickness circumferentially on the base layer portion, the base layer portion is a single layer or a sequence of layers, the electrically conductive layer is a single layer or a sequence of layers, and
- wherein the base layer portion comprises a near-surface zone of the outer organic jacket layer underneath the electrically conductive layer, the near-surface zone having a property selected from a group consisting of an increased surface energy, and an increased number of oxygen radicals.
