Introduction to Optical Fiber Components & Systems (VHS video casette)

This SPIE seminar will provide an introduction to optical fiber components and systems and an overview of the present status of this technology. Optical fiber with its almost infinite bandwidth and low transmission loss is becoming the technology of choice for today's and future communication systems. In the area of sensors, fiber optics has advantages of immunity to EMI, high sensitivity and large dynamic range. This course provides you with the background on the various fiber optic components that are used to construct fiber optic communication and sensor systems.
