Fiber Optics
20
Light: travels through fiber optic cables
Glass: what the fiber is usually made of
JohnTyndall: demonstrated fiber optics in lectures in the 1850s
Refraction: the bending of a wave because of a change in medium
Ultraviolet: light with a higher frequency than violet light
Fiberopticcable: a cable with thin strands of glass that allow light to travel through
Wavelength: the distance between the peak and crest of a wave
Amplitude: the maximum distance a wave vibrates from its rest position
Infrared: light with a lower frequency than red light
Reflection: the bouncing back of a wave after hitting a barrier
Conductor: a substance that allows the flow of electricity
Insulator: a substance that doesn’t allow the flow of electricity easily
Interference: the effect produced by the combination of to waves
Transparentsubstance: a substance through which light is easily transmitted
Wave: a disturbance that transfers energy through space or matter
Photon: tiny bundles of energy that demonstrate both wave and particle properties
LED: a semiconductor that is used in lights and stands for light emitting diode
SMF: this stands for single mode fibers
MMF: this stands for multi mode fibers
Indexofrefraction: the measure of how much a substance refracts light
