    Optical Storage Devices • An optical disk is a high-capacity storage medium. An optical drive uses reflected light to read data. • To store data‚ the disk’s metal surface is covered with tiny dents (pits) and flat spots (lands)‚ which cause light to be reflected differently. • When an optical drive shines light into a pit‚ the light cannot be reflected back. This represents a bit value of 0 (off). A land reflects light back to its source‚ Representing a bit value of 1 (on)

    INTRODUCTION Free-space optical communication (FSO) is an optical communication technology that uses light propagating in free space to transmit data for telecommunications orcomputer networking. "Free space" means air‚ outer space‚ vacuum‚ or something similar. This contrasts with using solids such as optical fiber cable or an optical transmission line. The technology is useful where the physical connections are impractical due to high costs or other considerations. Free-space optical communication (FSO)
