1Fiber Bragg grating — A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is a type of distributed Bragg reflector constructed in a short segment of optical fiber that reflects particular wavelengths of light and transmits all others. This is achieved by adding a periodic variation to the… …
2Fiber laser — A fiber laser or fibre laser is a laser in which the active gain medium is an optical fiber doped with rare earth elements such as erbium, ytterbium, neodymium, dysprosium, praseodymium, and thulium. They are related to doped fiber amplifiers,… …
3Double-clad fiber — Refractive index profile of dispersion compensating double clad fiber. c:core, i:inner cladding, o:outer cladding …
4Optical fiber — A bundle of optical fibers A TOSLINK fiber optic audio c …
5Plastic optical fiber — (POF) (or fibre) is an optical fiber which is made out of plastic. Traditionally PMMA (acrylic) is the core material, and fluorinated polymers are the cladding material. Since the late 1990s however, much higher performance POF based on… …
6Dark Fiber — Die Artikel Lichtleiter und Lichtwellenleiter überschneiden sich thematisch. Hilf mit, die Artikel besser voneinander abzugrenzen oder zu vereinigen. Beteilige dich dazu an der Diskussion über diese Überschneidungen. Bitte entferne diesen… …
7Optical amplifier — An optical amplifier is a device that amplifies an optical signal directly, without the need to first convert it to an electrical signal. An optical amplifier may be thought of as a laser without an optical cavity, or one in which feedback from… …
8David N. Payne — Professor David Neil Payne, CBE FRS FREng (born 13 August 1944) is a professor of photonics. He has made several contributions in areas of optical fibre communications over the last forty years and his work has had an impact on telecommunications …
9Power scaling — of a laser is increasing its output power without changing the geometry, shape, or principle of operation. Power scalability is considered an important advantage in a laser design.Usually, power scaling requires a more powerful pump source,… …
10Speed of light — The speed of light in the vacuum of free space is an important physical constant usually denoted by the letter c . [NIST and BIPM practice is to use c 0 for the speed of light in vacuum in accord with international standard ISO 31 5. See… …
