Rf and Microwave Fiber Optic Delay Line Techniques

Other delay line techniques include energy transfer methods such as crystal or glass substrates that generate acoustic waves. Here, electrical energy is converted to mechanical energy using a transducer. The energy moves through a medium at a speed related to properties of the material used to construct the delay line. Specific geometries of crystal or glass result in longer delays due to inter...

Dramatic improvements in the development of low-loss materials for optical fibers are responsible for the commercial viability of fiber-optic communications. Corning Incorporated pioneered the development and manufacture of ultra-low-loss glass fibers. C 0 R N I N G 272 Fundamentals of Photonics

Fiber Fourier optics.

The Fourier transform of a coherent optical image can be evaluated physically by use of a single lens plus free-space propagation, thereby providing the basis for the field of Fourier optics. I point out that one can similarly evaluate the discrete Fourier transform of a sampled or pixelated optical array physically by passing the discrete array amplitudes through a network of single-mode fiber...
