Note of Fiber Optics

Fiber Optics

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...
