- W2504011036 abstract "This chapter describes that all optical fibers have the following in common; a core of a transmissive medium with a certain refractive index and a cladding of a material with a lower refractive index. It is the difference in refractive index that constrains the light to mostly remain within the fiber and not escape out of the sides. The core can be made of glass or plastic and the cladding can also be made of glass or plastic. The majority of optical fibers are all silica, i.e., glass, but there are fibers with a glass core and a plastic cladding or even composed entirely of plastic. The vast majority of optical fibers used in communications are made of all-silica; plastic fiber has often been portrayed as the next generation low-cost alternative, but as yet it has not found many applications beyond the speciality market. Today, plastic fibers are mostly used for illumination or very short distance communication systems, such as in a car. The main advantage of plastic fiber is ease of connectorization but it has yet to prove itself in terms of cost, bandwidth, attenuation, and long-term thermal stability." @default.
