We would like to thank Professor R.P.Khare for giving us the
opportunity to undertake this project in the field of fiber optics. This
report would not have been possible without his prompt and able
guidance.
INTRODUCTION
With the advent of lasers and semiconductor optoelectronics, a great revolution in
modern optics took place. Rapid developments in fiber optics gave an additional
impetus to this. Holography and Fourier Optics are some well known photonic
techniques. The above developments led to the birth of a new discipline, popularly
called Photonics. In photonics, photons play a role akin to electrons in electronic
materials, devices and circuits. As a result, a large number of activities which were
traditionally in the electronic domain are now shifting to the realm of photonics. To
mention a few, progress in the use of photonics in sensing, signal processing,
communication and computing has been rapid. The main advantages are in terms of
speed and security. In addition to the high-tech and scientific activity, a whole range
of mass items like compact discs, photo copiers and laser printers have been the result
of photonic technologies. Gigabit transmission networks and information super
highways are currently pushing the society to greater heights. Processing...
