Optical guide

Optical Fibers. Pure and doped fused siHca fibers have replaced copper lines in the telecommunication area. Eused siHca fibers are used in laser surgery, optical sensor appHcation, and laser welding (see Sensors). Optical-fiber-tethered weapons such as fiber-optics-guided (EOG) missiles are another potential appHcation for fused siHca (249,250) (see Eiberoptics). [Pg.513]

In addition to studies of diacetylene single crystals, current research, activities are focused on studies of the second X and third x order nonlinear optical responses of disubstituted diacetylene polymer films as active optical guided wave structures. Diacetylene polymers possess X values comparable to germanium(j 7). In the first stage, three major questions are being addressed ... [Pg.20]

Optical guiding in preformed plasmas has been extensively investigated in experiments mainly oriented to demonstrate the production of relativistic electrons in LWF-related schemes. Plasma channel formation has been pursued with a variety of means, ranging from the use of hydrodynamic and shock-wave... [Pg.147]

A contact linear image sensor can make the equipment compact, because it does not require a high-magnification lens system. The sensor unit consists of an illuminator, a compact optical guide, and the long linear photosensor array, which is, for example, 210 mm long for the iso-A4... [Pg.140]
