Light transmission optics Dietrich Marcuse

According to the first theory, light is described as a simple ray. This is a phenomenon known as total internal reflection, and it forms the basis of fiber optics, in which light is transmitted over long distances through transparent glass fibers. The concept of light propagation, the transmission of light along an optical fiber, can be described by two theories. Amazon.com Product Description - Nikon's renowned Brightvue multi-coating provides 92% light transmission for outstanding optical clarity. ABSTRACT: We report an anomalous light transmission phenomenon for a nanoaperture on an opaque screen when the aperture is covered with an opaque cap. PROPAGATION OF LIGHT ALONG A FIBER. Using light to transmit information – optical communication – is the basis of several technologies, most commonly fiber-optic cables, which are used in imaging and telecommunications. Because there is total internal reflection within the fiber optic cables, the information that is being transmitted in the form of light is able to continuously bounce off the reflective surfaces of the fiber optic cable. Light transmission describes the percentage of available light that passes through your binoculars. The amount of light can be increased with the use of anti-reflective coatings on binocular lenses.
