"A carbon fiber is a long‚ thin strand of material about 0.005-0.010 mm in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms. The carbon atoms are bonded together in microscopic crystals that are more or less aligned parallel to the long axis of the fiber. The crystal alignment makes the fiber incredibly strong for its size. Several thousand carbon fibers are twisted together to form a yarn‚ which may be used by itself or woven into a fabric. The yarn or fabric is combined with epoxy and wound or molded

cloth. Good portions of these are combinations of synthetic fibers woven or threaded together to make a final product. These synthetic fibers are a large group of polymers. Synthetic polymers offer more possibilities‚ since they can be designed with molecular structures that impart properties for desired end uses. All fibers are ploy-something or polymers. That means they are long strings of repeating chemical elements. Some fibers come from ground plants that synthesize connected units of cellulose

Optical Fiber Communication Course Code-MCS-616 1. Draw a diagram to approaches of optical communication. 2. Draw a block diagram of Light wave application areas. 3. Why do we use fiber computing? State the characteristics of optical fiber communication. Why we Use Optics for Computing? One of the theoretical limits on how fast a computer can function is given by Einstein’s principle that “signal cannot propagate

recreation applications. A fiber is a hair-like strand of material. “They are the smallest visible unit of a fabric and are denoted by being extremely long in relation to their width. Synthetic fibers are man made from chemicals. They are generally based on polymers and are stronger than natural and regenerated fibers. Synthetic fibers are the result of extensive research by scientists to improve on naturally occurring animal and plant fibers” (NSP). In its physical form synthetic fibers are widely available

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
