At Merck KGaA in Darmstadt (Germany), in-line UV spectroscopy has been used for monitoring a distillation setup for solvent purification." A transmission probe was implemented at the top of the column. Solarization-resistant UV fibers guided the light to a diode array spectrometer. From the spectra, a quality parameter was extracted and fed to the process control system (PCS). As an example, the quality parameter would exhibit a transient behavior upon column startup. Below a defined threshold value of the parameter, the PCS would assume sufficient product quality and switch the exit stream from waste to product collection. The operation of the spectrometer does not take place in a direct manner, but rather via the PCS.

Solid core fibers guide the laser radiation through total internal reflection. These fibers are made of different kinds of glasses, single crystalline materials and polycrystalline materials.

Initially, optical fibers were used to guide the light from an external light source into the deep regions of the brain (Fig. 11.23A) in conjunction with neuroprobes for stimulation readout (Aravanis et al., 2007). However, this solution shows a few limitations related to the possible injuries inferred to neurons during the fiber-guided...
