FIBRE OPTICS

Fst 01 FIBRE OPTICS explanation by Student Help.

1.      FIBRE OPTICS - Fibre optics is the technique of transmitting light waves through glass wires as thin as human hair.

2.      These wires called optical fibres could be made of glass or transparent plastic, quartz, nylon or polystyrene.

3.      Opticalfibres are thin hair-like solid strands that carry light along their length, by a process of multiple total internal reflections.

4.      . In this process the beam of light entering at one end is transmitted along the fibre, without loss of intensity, whether the fibre is straight or bent in a curve.
