An optical fiber is a cylindrical dielectric waveguide made of low-loss materials such as silica glass. It has a central core in which the light is guided, embedded in an outer cladding of slightly lower refractive index (Fig. 8.0-l). Light rays incident on the
Fiber optics, which is the science of light transmission through very fine glass or plastic fibers, continues to be used in more and more applications due to its inherent advantages over copper conductors.
20 mar 2017 · The field of applied science and engineering concerned with the design and application of optical fibers is known as fiber optics. Optical fibers typically include a transparent core...

The book will take you from the physical basics of ray and beam optics, explain fiber structure and the functions of optical elements, and bring you to the forefront of both applications and research.
fiber optics offers a method of transmission that allows for clearer, faster, more efficient communication than copper. A fiber optic communication system holds many advantages over a copper wire system. For example, while a simple two-strand wire can carry a low-speed signal over a long distance, it cannot send high-speed signals very far.
