The cladding moves the light along the core by using total internal reflection. The core and the cladding are usually made of high-quality silica glass‚ but they can both be made of plastic as well. Connecting two optical fibers is done by fusion splicing or mechanical

Fiber Optics Assignment Many modern medical materials and equipment work on a principle which is beyond the capacity of human transducers. Comment and discuss the working principles of an endoscope‚ uteroscope or a rectoscope showing the illuminating path‚ the image path‚ transmission path and the liquid transfer or operating instrument ducts‚ showing the position of suitable valves. This will therefore explain how light travels through an optical fibre and show how such
