Feasibility of Making Coherent Fiber-Optic Arrays from Fused Silica
Coherent fiber-optic bundles offer opportunities for application of state-of-the-art electro-optic imaging techniques to the sighting and fire- control problem. However, conventional fiber-optics are limited in this application by their high attenuation coefficients (up to 2000 dB/km). Fused silica...

Zusammenfassung: | Coherent fiber-optic bundles offer opportunities for application of state-of-the-art electro-optic imaging techniques to the sighting and fire- control problem. However, conventional fiber-optics are limited in this application by their high attenuation coefficients (up to 2000 dB/km). Fused silica fiber with its low attenuation (1-50 dB/km), offers substantial improvement. |
