The Highly Specialized Fiber Optic Microscope
The standard microscope is a fixture in millions of school, medical, and research laboratories around the world. It is used by grammar school kids and Ph.D. researchers alike, and most of us have at least a rudimentary understanding of how it works. But there’s another sort of microscope with which most of us are unfamiliar, simply because it is found only in the fiber optics industry. A fiber optic microscope is as specialized as the field in Read More... -
Providing a Fiber Optic Light Source
Today low loss fiber optic systems offer almost unlimited bandwidth and unique advantages over all previously developed transmission media. The basic optical transmitters convert electrical signals into modulated light for transmission over an optical fiber. The most common devices used as the light source in optical transmitters are light emitting diode. Fiber optic light source make a good use of this, as light emitting diodes have relatively l Read More... -
How Do Fiber Optic Connectors Work?
The history of fiber optic telecommunication deserves a book by itself since it took several generations to get the industry today. Optical fiber is a long thin cylindrical fiber made from glass or plastic, as tiny as one tenth of a human hair. A standard telecom optical fiber is composed of three cylindrical layers, counted inside out: fiber core (diameter 8~10um), cladding (diameter 125um) and buffer coating (diameter 900um). Fiber core and c Read More...
