Analysis of the geometry of recursive tilings has led to the development of a new class of highly ordered optical composites that exhibit fractal surface character. These objects are, we believe, the first engineered fractal objects. The mathematics of tiling and examples of fractal fiber array devices are reviewed.

Optical fiber to the workstation
Proceedings [1988] 13th Conference on Local Computer Networks, 2003The author presents the point of view that installation of fiber optics is now a strategically sound solution to both current local area network (LAN) requirements and the only realistic migration path to the high-speed LANs of the future. Vertical and horizontal wiring schemes are considered.

Methods of controllable, noncontact rotation of optically trapped microscopic objects have garnered significant attention for tomographic imaging and microfluidic actuation. Here, we report development of a fiber-optic spanner and demonstrate controlled rotation of smooth muscle cells. The rotation is realized by introducing a transverse offset between

In the preceding chapter it was shown that, under ideal conditions, a light wave in a dielectric material would form an envelope soliton. However, in a real three-dimensional fiber, the light wave propagates with finite loss. In this chapter, we discuss the practical conditions needed for an optical pulse to become a soliton in a dielectric waveguide.

Journal of Electronic Imaging, 1992
Several possibilities based on the principles of scattering and polarization of light in liquid crystals (LCs) and PLZT ceramics were studied for the replacement of mechanical shutters and attenuators in optical instruments. A scatter-mode LC was selected as the active material, and two modules were developed for fiber optic attenuator applications. In

Optics Letters, 2001
The Fourier transform of a coherent optical image can be evaluated physically by use of a single lens plus free-space propagation, thereby providing the basis for the field of Fourier optics. I point out that one can similarly evaluate the discrete Fourier transform of a sampled or pixelated optical array physically by passing the discrete array ...

A fiber optic connector and cable assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a fiber optic connector (422) and a fiber optic cable (24). The fiber optic cable can be coupled to the assembly at a demarcation section. All components of the fiber optic cable (e.g., fiber, strength members, jacket, etc.) are fixed relative to each other and relative to ...
