core-cladding boundary
1Core diameter — can be defined as in the cross section of a realizable optical fiber, ideally circular, but assumed to a first approximation to be elliptical, the average of the diameters of the smallest circle that can be circumscribed about the core cladding… …
2Core (optical fiber) — The structure of a typical single mode fiber. 1. Core 8 µm diameter 2. Cladding 125 µm dia. 3. Buffer 250 µm dia. 4. Jacket 400 µm dia …
3Cladding (fiber optics) — Cladding is one or more layers of material of lower refractive index, in intimate contact with a core material of higher refractive index. The cladding causes light to be confined to the core of the fiber by total internal reflection at the… …
4Optical fiber — A bundle of optical fibers A TOSLINK fiber optic audio c …
5Guided ray — A guided ray (also bound ray or trapped ray) is a ray of light in a multimode optical fiber, which is confined by the core. For step index fiber, light entering the fiber will be guided if it falls within the acceptance cone of the fiber, that is …
6Double-clad fiber — Refractive index profile of dispersion compensating double clad fiber. c:core, i:inner cladding, o:outer cladding …
7telecommunications media — Introduction equipment and systems metal wire, terrestrial and satellite radio, and optical fibre employed in the transmission of electromagnetic signals. Transmission media and the problem of signal degradation Every… …
8Nuclear meltdown — Three of the reactors at Fukushima I overheated, causing core meltdowns. This was compounded by hydrogen gas explosions and the venting of contaminated steam which released large amounts of radioactive material into the air.[1] …

10Dynamical billiards — The Bunimovich stadium is a chaotic dynamical billiard A billiard is a dynamical system in which a particle alternates between motion in a straight line and specular reflections from a boundary. When the particle hits the boundary it reflects… …
