Fiber Optic CommunicationBegins With Laser Light
The light is produced by a tiny diode.

Fiber Optic CommunicationInformation (Voice, Websites, Etc) is
Encoded into Pulses.
First, a laser beam is split into two identical beams.
How?

Fiber Optic CommunicationInformation is Encoded into Pulses
Each beam travels an identical path and then they are recombined, but….

Fiber Optic CommunicationInformation is Encoded into Pulses
…one beam must pass through an ELECTRO-OPTIC crystal.

Fiber Optic CommunicationInformation is Encoded into Pulses
When an electronic signal is delivered to the crystal, the light wave shifts.

Fiber Optic CommunicationInformation is Encoded into Pulses
When the light waves recombine, the result is ON (pulse) or OFF (no pulse)
The ON and OFF signals carry the code of information!

Fiber Optic CommunicationHow do the laser pulses carry the information
from one place to another?

Fiber Optic Communication
Fiber optic cables contain several layers:
![Page 15: Photon2 Internship PENN STATE UNIVERSITY Materials Research Lab June 2005 Paul Longwell.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649eff5503460f94c1415c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Fiber Optic Communication
Total Internal Reflection allows the light to remain in the fiber optic cable as it travels.
![Page 16: Photon2 Internship PENN STATE UNIVERSITY Materials Research Lab June 2005 Paul Longwell.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649eff5503460f94c1415c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Fiber Optic Communication
After the light has traveled through the cable, the initial encoding process is essentially reversed
and the information is delivered.
