Transmitting information over glass fibers is the most exciting development in guided signal communications since the first coaxial cable installation between Ney York and Philadelphia in 1935.&nbs

Spatially resolved photoluminescence is used as a nondestructive tool to characterize semiconductor epitaxial wafers with a resolution better than the device dimensions.

A new linear optical waveguide bus is described. Discrete crystal sites are used to scatter controlled fractions of propagating light onto a detector.

Lightwave communications systems based on the transmission of digital on-off pulse of light through a hair-thin glass fiber optics are revolutionizing communications throughout the world. 

Fiber Optics has been identified as an important option for MAP (Manufacturing Automation Protocol).

Fiber optics can be used as a passive physical medium for a MAP (Manufacturing Automation Protocol) network with up to 32 nodes.

Fiber Optic (Lightwave) technology is being widely deployed throughout the United States, having become the technology of choice for high-capacity long haul, metropolitan inter-office, and subscrib

While optical fiber is the medium of choice in today's long haul and intracity communications networks, it is not immediately clear that fiber optics are cost effctive in local building and campus

This book is primarily intended to function as a text for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in Electrical Engineering at colleges and universities.

A review of optical communications history will be given, followed by a discussion of the physics of light guidance.
